JackParrow the bank freezes international funds , till you sort out your FICA info and or comply with the reason for receiving funds and we have to supply the initials and surname of the sender.... I receive funds from Ireland and the UK at least once a month...
I always get an email in this regard....
But round the end of Dec I received a 1k payment and no notification via email....so by the end of 7days, I didn't declare the necessary info (including updating my FICA info, and they put a hold on my account.... I only got to do an affidavit and certified copy of my ID by round the 13th...so I had no access to my account until I submitted all of the above mentioned.... And literally the same day my account was "released from hold"
It was a pain in the arse...coz whatever funds I had in my account, I needed to pay bills online....and had to contact everyone to tell them I'll be paying them once I have access to my funds....
It was very stressful, but I'm glad it is now over
Pheeeeew
