if the account have suspicious or possible fraud then yes they surely can put a freeze on your account

you need to go to your bank and speak with the branch manager and he/she will be able to tell you whats going on

Frozen bank accounts ??

not really sure by your question what you are asking so I am going to guess....

YES accounts can be frozen if it is suspected that they are involved in fraud. I believe reasonable suspicion is the standard that the banks must use and there is a time frame where if the charges are not substainated (sp) then the bank must release your funds.

i would talk to an attorney and see if he can help if you find no luck in talking with the branch manager!

they would need to provide the courts with some proof of tax evasion before they would be granted a court order to freeze your bank accounts, I would suggest you see a solicitor urgently as sounds like the brown stuff has hit the proverbial fan.

If you have nothing to hide, and, believe that your Bankers have acted unfairly, see a Solicitor, instruct them (provided that they agree to act) and seek injunctive relief. Prior to taking such a step, if, you are able to persuade your Bank, by sending them a %26#039;letter before action%26#039; (prior to commencing proceedings) that; your financial dealings are %26#039;above board, you will find, that, your account facilities will be restored. Do not do it through the Branch; ask for the address of the Area Office, and write (having retained a photocopy) to; the Area Director.
