賬戶凍結令 - 利用銀行對它的「沉默」來取回您的錢!

賬戶凍結令 - 利用銀行對它的「沉默」來取回您的錢!

客戶發現帳戶被凍結后,一個常見且令人沮喪的經歷是完全缺乏來自銀行的信息或溝通。客戶通常會打電話給他們的銀行以了解發生了什麼。銀行總是說他們不能提供任何資訊,但可能會將您轉介到他們的投訴程式。如果銀行凍結了您的主要或唯一收入來源,這可能會非常痛苦。銀行之所以如此沉默,坦率地說無濟於事,是因為 2002年《犯罪收益法》第333條規定,披露任何可能妨礙洗錢調查的資訊均屬刑事犯罪。銀行對犯下這種罪行持謹慎態度,因此他們幾乎什麼都不說,甚至通常不會告訴你你正在接受調查!

但是,我們可以將銀行的「沉默」變成對付他們的武器,以追回您的錢,如下所示。2002年《犯罪收益法》規定了銀行可以凍結您的具體時間範圍 銀行帳戶。特別是,他們可以凍結您的帳戶 31 天,在第一個 31 天的“暫停”期結束後總共凍結 186 天。根據我們的經驗,許多銀行超過了這些時程表,並繼續保持「沉默」和無反應。這意味著銀行不再合法行事,因為您的帳戶在允許的時間範圍內被凍結。我們最近為一位客戶代理了帳戶被凍結超過允許的186天。銀行忽略了所有我們的信在行動之前。因此,我們申請瞭解凍該帳戶的禁令。按照他們當時的行為,銀行沒有出席禁制令聽證會,並保持沉默。然而,我們需要向法院證明我們有一個案件(證據證明資金是合法的),並且我們已經在銀行通常的營業地點為他們服務。根據《民事訴訟規則》第6部分,「送達」可以在被告的慣常營業地點進行。一旦我們能夠證明根據規則允許送達,法院將認為銀行已正確送達。我們能夠出示我們的服務證書,在這種情況下,法院批准了我們的禁令。那是在星期五。我們在週六向(沉默的)銀行送達了禁令,到週二,銀行已經轉移了我們的法律費用,並與我們聯繫以獲取新的帳戶詳細資訊,以轉移凍結的賬戶金額。資金現在正在運往我們的客戶手中。我們不僅對銀行的沉默感到「沮喪」,但利用銀行對他們的沉默為我們的客戶追回資金。

Trilogy, EFreeze and Naga Pay Customers – Contis Financial Services Ltd Contis Financial Services Ltd which operates online banking platforms Trilogy Ffreeze and Naga Pay was placed into special administration by court order of 30th of January 2025. Customers will inevitably be very concerned about the funds which have been in place with the bank and will be anxious as to how they can recover those funds. The arrangements for the return of customer funds is governed by the Payment and Electronic Money Institution Insolvency Regulations 2021 which aims to protect customer funds as a priority. The administration is called a ‘special administration’ as it is governed by tailor made 2021 regulations and not the general law that applies to insolvency in general. As a first priority administrators will need to do a reconciliation of the accounts held by Contis and where possible restore customer funds from the institution’s own resources and relevant third-party claims e.g. insurance claims. The administrator may
