I have put 26K once.It wasn't a prob to put it in at all.When I was getting 11k out of it in order to make a payment,my bank rang me asking if it was ok to pay such n such and why.
There was no prob as such.
It is Barclays,BTW.

I've paid in over 12 grand in cash (used fifties) after a good (rare) weekend on the horses, and I've paid in personal and business cheques for over 20k and never had any questions.

A friend of mine has over 50k in his "daily" current account at any one time, although that's not with a high st bank.... :cry:

Ex bank manager for the number 1, used to be connected to hong kong if you get my drift :) Left cos they are all robbing b*st*rds...

There is no limit on the amount you can put in ...
but...

the girls going thru he account , ie when you deposit, withdraw, phone up for a balance, etc etc will get a BONUS if they can get you to shift the money from your current account into another account and if they can get you in front of one of their financial advisors they get MEGA MEGA points towards their targets....

any other tricks you wanna know??? Like security checks on large amounts that you try and withdraw to hold it up until they can get hold of you to try and stop it leaving them !!!

h.t.h

The balance you have in your account is irrelevant. As is the amount you transfer around.

What raises suspicion is large deposits of CASH. Anything more than £10K and serious questions will be asked. It's a legal requirement for Banks to report it, it's part of the anti money laundering legeslation.

Thanks

its to do with the fsa and money laundering
