Re: Citibank just effffed me!
It sounds like inactivity on a six month old account, mismatched names, plus withdrawing money triggered their security system into freezing your account. It's a good idea to sit on an account for a few months and actively use it. I always like to deposit checks to bank accounts that will be used for stealth and make purchases here and there. Once I feel like my account is established, I add it to paypal. I have three accounts with one bank and never withdraw into more than one account once every three days too. I also don't withdraw cash as soon as paypal deposits hit. I let it sit for a few days. The bank security systems are designed like paypal...withdrawing money not long after it hits your account will trigger the system if you aren't an established customer
To add, some grocery stores allow customers to make cashback transactions up to $200 when making a purchase. I usually withdraw cash this way. |
