How many savings accounts - who cares? If the bank doesn't like too many, it has to make it clear or just not to allow opening new ones.
Why was the money moved - who cares? Can anything be wrong with moving money between your accounts in the same bank?2 -

Yes, all this multiaccounting is messy, but hardly can be a valid reason for freezing accounts for 10 days and counting. Majority here seem to suspect the OP in wrong doing and sort of agree that "AML software which runs across the databases is extremely sophisticated and joins the dots together."Personally, I suspect the bank in the first place. The software isn't that sophisticated and was designed not by the brightest people and written not by the brightest programmers. The 'investigators' are overloaded. The customers suffer.0 -
Looks like another case where the OP disappears when questions/clarifications are being asked ?0
