My relative got two cashier's checks deposited directly in her account on Feb. 24 2017 total amount of 20k. Today it is 3rd week credit union has restricted account access so funds and were not available for withdrawal. When asked this CU said we need to verify/validate the check deposited because they think it is a scam or bogus check and we want to protect or our member. But they could not specify when funds would be available.
Is this common to hold the funds for such long time? when we check at ATM it shows funds fully available but when try to withdraw it says not possible.
Are their any rules to protect consumers against such practice? what is allowed time limit for bank/credit union to hold funds like this?
if there are any rules or law please refer me to such in state of WA
