What's the maximum you can put in to a bank account (UK) at any one time?
I have heard that if you put any more than £50k in to an account at any one time then bank staff have the right to ask you where you got the money from in case it is connected to criminal activity. Is this figure right? If so, could you not just wait a month then put another £50k in, and so forth?

I'm referring to a normal account with a high street UK bank, e.g., Lloyds.

I'm not involved in any criminal activity myself but am just curious how the system works- thanks!

There must be a limit. The bank would get suspicious if a nurse wanted to cash a cheque for £10 million out of the blue.

Banks have a duty to report routinely any account with over £10000 and to report as suspicious any transaction they suspect may be criminal. For this there is no set amount, it depends who is depositing the money. But naturally, the bigger the amount, the more suspicious it becomes.

There is no fixed amount, but they do ask if you put in an unusually large amount above your normal dealings. Obviously, if you have a business, it would be less likely to attract attention. I recently paid in a matured insurance policy cheque for £11,000. I was asked to write on the back, the source of the money.


aaaaaaa
I dont think there is a limit but they might inform the tax office or the police if they think it supicous. If you win the lottery you will get a cheque for £10 million and you will have to deposit in the bank

Not too sure about the £50K limit but there are limits to the amount of transactions per day on a single account you can have (Halifax).

Yeah at one time I had a lot of house equity paid in and they asked me where it was from then. Hasn't happened since unfortunately!


SAPPER
I would think if you arrived a the bank with a holdall full of "readies" questions would be asked and rightly so, on the other hand a cheque for whatever amount if honoured should not prove to be a problem, could be a pools or lottery win even a bequest in a will,just wish I had the chance.

I don't believe it is just the value being transacted - after all, what if you are buying/selling a house & not using a solicitor?
I think it is based on a pattern of transactions which has been ascertained by observations of known criminal's bank accounts!

There's a maxim in banking - it applies over the whole spectrum of the business - 'distrust anything sudden.' This was around long before we had the current laws on money-laundering, etc., which have mandated that banks be on the alert. So it makes more sense to think in terms of banks being alert for any sudden change in your activity, rather than in terms of specific amounts.

Hope that clarifies.

I can't see the problem , if the money you have to put in is legal , then why worry what they think.


Elric of Melniboné
I didn't think there was a limit, as a general rule banks like people giving them money but don't like handing it out!
