Where does one report federal My bank has not answered my
lawfuil, reasonable, and
proper questions regarding my
account and my communications
(emails were sent while I am
overseas). The bank does
business in the USA and is
located in Texas. I think
there are state and federaL
agencies which regulate
federal savings banks.

By law no institution can convert the owner's funds into theirs. If the institution can not locate the owner of the funds it holds after attempts to contact the owner of the account it must turn the funds of the account to the state treasure of the state that the institution resides. HOWEVER, many banks charge fees to get around this. Some bank call it a lack of activity charge and others may charge a low deposit charge. So don't be surprised if the bank has legally usurpt the funds in the account. Check with the treasure of the state that the bank was located. And good luck. Hopefully Indianna is as good as Kansas is in helping people reunite with their money. Good luck. |

No problem at all, sometimes its actually good. If a bank goes under, at least some of your money is ok in other banks. It also helps to control your money, you could perhaps have a designated bills bank, recreation, savings etc etc. In terms of savings, this could be "holiday", "retirement" or even just to play the interest rates (most have a high rate for balances under £2000, so 5 banks with £2000 will get more interest than one bank with £10,000 |
