reminder to everybody with savings accounts

[ncba93ivyase]

make at least one deposit or withdrawal with each account per year

otherwise the state takes your money because they think it's "abandoned"

i need to do a bunch of shit to get my money back now and they never even warn your ass

[Commander Fuckass]

No shit dickhead.

The lady at my credit union even told me to make a withdrawl or deposit in each or it'll be closed to no activity.

[don't let's]

Always read the fine print

i was told the opposite when registering for my account

too many transactions with a savings account makes it merge with my checking account

there's no mention of "abandoned property" anywhere in the contract. it's a policy of the government, not the bank.

dont trust banks

Not sure which bank you have, but I have a Chase savings account that I don't use and it never had any issues. The money is still there and I even get updates on the interest.

If I were you I'd make a small transfer of like a dollar right now.

if you don't make a point of doing something with that money the government takes it with the excuse that you either didn't want it or you died

I typically make deposits in it every few weeks anyway, so I guess I'm fine.

The time of presumed abandonment depends on the state.  I believe Montana requires the account to remain inactive for five years before the account is reclaimed.
