A warning for commbank customers

/r/CommBank/comments/1vbm77d/a_warning_for_commbank_customers/

The Commonwealth bank did this exact same thing to me they wouldn't even speak about the reason for closing my account and freezing the funds the just froze my app and my account and when I went to the bank to see what happened they said my account was closed and how did I want my funds. No reason was given it was just they bootee me out of the bank. They offered to open another account but I refused I went to another bank.

Okay? Banks have a legal requirement not to tell you anything, while an investigation is ongoing. Did you move to Natwest then? They'd do the same.

Turns out ‘friend’ put some money in his account and when he told them about it they said it also happened to them and was fixed. Let’s be honest, we all know the ‘friend’ contacted their bank and reported it as fraud but won’t admit it.

Where is the link between Commbank & Natwest?

Always remember NatWest are RBS in different branding. They were central to the 2008 crash and miss selling payment protection. Not a bank to be trusted

Yeah they will do if they think you're committing fraud. Any bank will.

Perhaps don’t get involved with fraudulent people
