We recently had our accounts closed by the bank. They were frozen and all funds held, banks claims because of our behavior.
Problem is now 2 of the accounts have large sums of money missing from the and the bank says that there is no problem be transferred the money out. My question is how can we transfer money from a closed account and where is it now? Who do we contact to get our money?
Your account was frozen and emptied because of your "behavior?"
What does that mean? Where?
Hello D:
I re-read my bank agreement. Bad behavior isn't grounds for them taking my money and closing my account. Bouncing checks, and stealing however, ARE grounds.
So, tell us what "behavior" you did. Please be specific, and we'll tell you where to get your money, if there's any to be gotten.

Hello dance
I am also confused, you said your account was frozen and empited out, sounds like you had a judgement and the creditor got his money and as for the rest of your question you need to explain
Sorry, quess I wasn.t explicite enough. Our accounts were closed because the bank decided that my husbands foul language was inappropriate. On average he would call about 2 times a week over issues with the accounts, and would get someone on the phone who didn't speak clearly or who would say that there was no issue only to have someone on the second or third call correct the issue. This was an on going occurrence for about a year. Our bank manage was of no help at all, she acctually took to causing problems with me when I was in the bank. The final occurrence was about the 26th of Feb. when he called about a service charge on our savings account and spent 3 hours on the phone before it was fixed. I assume after much yelling and cursing, the bank closed the accounts. They told us they would be closed on the10th of March and we would be sent a check for the balances. We found out on the 3rd when we tried to use our bank card, and couldn't. We went to the bank to ask why and the manager called the police, to have us leave and put a hold on our accounts. At this point we had 14 dollars to our name and no way of getting the rest of it out of the bank. We went home and did a print out of the balances. I called the exec. Offices and was told as soon as all transactions had clear we would be issued a check. However, the next morning we checked on line to see if the transactions had cleared and found over 500 missing from one account and 485 missing from another. I called again and was told that no the account balances were right there was no money in those accounts even though I pointed out the error to them. The woman I spoke with said she would investigate but I still have no answers. How do I get my money ?
You go on line and print out the statement of transactions on both accounts. That statement (print out) will indicate when the money was withdrawn as well as where it went. You obviously can't go from $500 to zip without a withdrawal.
Then you CALMLY take that statement to the bank and ask that the money be returned to the account.
In the meantime I say this half tongue in cheek - I'd keep your husband off the phone and out of the bank before he gets himself arrested.
Handle this cooly and calmly, professionally, as a matter of missing funds. If all else fails you CAN contact the State Bank Regulatory Board for your State.
Thank Judy but that is impossible as they shut down our online account also. Seems they can do what ever they like.

As noted above be CALM and polite. When your bank statements come YOU take them to the bank and show them the differences and have them show you where the money
Went. I knew of one person who had money missing from an account and the bank was more than happy to sit down with her and go over every single transaction, comes to find out a mistake had been made and the bank gladley fixed it for her right then, I think the thing to remember is to be nice
