 I don't think its any of their business.
 
 Then her Mother's account is one of those money markets where you can cut 3 or so checks a month...the bank said if it doesn't show activity and they said that means withdrawals not deposits, for 5 years I think, it can be confiscated. That sounds like a crock.
 I wonder if thats in Dodd-Frank.
 
 Makes one wonder whats going on in DC.

>>> BUNK! Make them show you that. I bet it's a "bank policy."
Banks will do anything to get away with stuff like that.
Tell your mother to move the money out or call up the FBI.

That's bank policy. Time for a change! Or add 5.00 and that's "activity." 
 
Which bank is this?
