bountyhunter Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) This is one of my pet peeves: the state of california conspires with banks to steal your money if the account goes "inactive"..... well, if it really was an account that sat dormant for years, maybe it would make sense. But out here, if you buy a time CD the state can start the process to confiscate it after one year.... even if it is a five year CD. Make sense? The only saving grace is they have to send you a letter saying you have to claim it within 30 days, pray that letter doesn't get lost. So I had a five year CD at US Bank, and I just got the letter. I went over to the bank and asked: did the account mature? Of course not, I can't touch the money for another four years without severe penalties. Exactly what "activity" am I supposed to be doing on this account then? Well, you have to come in regularly, show your driver's license and sign a paper that proves your still alive. Living in california, I have had to learn to accept what it's like when the lunatics run the asylum. But this is too much.

titandriver Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 So who is actually doing the robbing and keeping the money - the bank or the state? Or is it split 50-50? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
