WF is one of the worst. They will close accounts (and keep the money) for inactivity. Probably what happened here. Had a friend who was POA and then executor and they still would not turn over funds or records claiming she didn’t have authority. over a year later she is still fighting them in court.

WF is one of the worst.

Right you are. I've read that Wells Fargo will freeze your accounts based on bogus out-of-state claims. For example, suppose California claims that you owe $500 in traffic tickets, even though you've never been near that state. WF is very happy to freeze your accounts at CA's request.

Avoid them.

a few years back my son called me to tell me I have some money listed on the state of Michigan, Treasury dept, I had on 4 different occasions been listed. It totaled about 3,ooo dollars before My name quit coming up...You have to use their form, from the lost money thingy. Had to get a copy of my birth cert. marriage license, and list the last 3 residents I lived at...Sent it to the state and they issued me a check....(4 times for 4 different accounts) My daughter called me a couple of days ago I was listed with lost money from State treasury... Have to get the form and right now my printed isn't working....They don't tell you how much money is involved until the check actually arrives... Its the law that any company that has moneys, stock etc. has to be turned into the state treasury and its up to you to check it out. There is some red tape involved but worth it....Hope this is understandable but everyone should check it out in the state your living in...
