<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#2F5496">P.R. takes all necessary docs to Bank and opens Estate bank account and asks to have decedent’s accounts at
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#2F5496">B of A closed and transferred into the estate bank account. She was told, “no” all of decedent’s accounts will be frozen for
<b>a month</b> while the legal paperwork is reviewed and “processed” through the Bank’s system and only then will the funds be unfrozen and transferred to estate account! I have had many PRs use Bank of America and have never heard of this bank protocol. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#2F5496"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#2F5496">To make matters even more frustrating, they will not allow her access to the decedent’s safe deposit box (she has the key) until the month long “review process” is completed – the box contains
title sot vehicles that need to be moved and sold and who knows what else is in the box.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#2F5496"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#2F5496">Any suggestions of the best approach to take to get my client access to the funds now – I plan to call the branch but expect to get nowhere.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
