  • 1.  Delay in Funding

    Posted 06-02-2022 16:19

     

    I am interested in learning of your experience with your bank holding incoming and outgoing wires for regulatory review (or OFAC), delaying the release,  and how often this occurs.  This would include all funds especially incoming loan proceeds and outgoing mortgage payoffs, seller proceeds, etc.

     

    It would be of most interest to me to chat with you offline if you are banking with Bank of America.  Thank you in advance.  Francine

    DO NOT ENGAGE WITH ANYONE IN AN EMAIL REGARDING WIRING OF FUNDS –  DO NOT ASK US QUESTIONS IN AN EMAIL REGARDING WIRING OF FUNDS - WE WILL NOT PROVIDE OUR WIRING INSTRUCTIONS BY EMAIL TO A BUYER

    IF YOU AT ANYTIME RECEIVE WRITTEN WIRING INSTRUCTIONS FROM US, WE STRONGLY ENCOURAGE YOU TO CALL US ON AN INDEPENDENTLY VERIFIED PHONE NUMBER TO VERIFY THE ACCOUNT AND ROUTING NUMBERS BEFORE INITIATING THE WIRE. WE WILL NEVER CHANGE OUR INSTRUCTIONS.  DO NOT ACCEPT ANY CHANGE.   THANK YOU.

    Francine,
     I have had this happen a couple of times but it is usually cleared up within the hour. They will ask for identifying information (social security number, date of birth, the full legal name, reason for the wire, etc.) of the person whose name had the OFAC hit.   Once that information is provided it's usually a quick process for them to release the funds.

    Occasionally BB&T now Truist will call to verify a large outgoing wire and rarely there appears to be a delay with incoming wires, but we never know what is the actual cause.

     

    Thank you!

    Citizens Bank is doing this as well, holding the funds for regulatory review.
