bank froze funds
UK based MetroBank froze funds because of mismatched names. around 4k. they want explanation why names mismatched, any advice? they being real pricks about it. All payments came from paypal into 3 diff savers, and three diff names. They want me to show them proof funds are mine. Any advice much welcome.
I was idiot because I rushed to do transfers and didn't build up account, but that's another story. |

| that is a standard anti money laundering check , you suddenly receive large amounts of money on a new account in third party names
you should always start slowly , show some spending with credit cards etc. , if a new account suddenly starts receiving such amounts they assume that the money must be stolen and you are a so called mule who is supposed to cash it |

| yeah I realize that, but what explanation can I give them, their main question why is it coming in different names |

Re: bank froze funds
Say its trading name, it can be anything and you can trade under any name |

Re: bank froze funds
If he had started with small deposits do you guys think it would have made a difference? Is this the norm or is it because the uk has laws stating the names should match? |

Re: bank froze funds
Also if OP made the deposits to a company account with multiple savers do you think the bank would have responded the same?? |

Re: bank froze funds
depositing fund not in name of the bank account holder is like endorsement,in US some banks have disallowed such,too much fraud. |
