California Unclaimed Property - Bank of America stole our money

We got a cashier's check from Bank of America from the proceeds of a mortgage refinance transaction with the bank, we put the check in the safe deposit box, later on when we try to cash the check, the bank told us they transferred the money to the State of California without telling us. We have been customers of BOA for over 40 years, have been at the same address and same phone number for over 30 years and we were never notified. The state of California says they have no records going back that far, so have we lost our money? Did Bank of America or the State of California steal our money to give to California state without our being notified? Why? The bank refuses to cash the cashier's check, what to do?

We have the original cashier's check in our possession, but Bank of America won't cash it. Our property of the cashiers check has been and continues on our possession, the money value for the check was stolen from us by California state and Bank of America.

WOW ! That's the California government for you. Show us the love !

So when did ANYONE have the right to go into a SAFE DEPOSIT box that was SUPPOSE to be SAFE in a bank? The BOX was paid for in advance. Anyone with any brains understand that to be the same as a PO BOX. I bet they wont do that with the PO BOXES !

No wonder the governor wants people to "come to California" they need more money, and bait.

.... why put a cheque in a safe deposit box??? deposit it!

Banks do not usually accept cheques older than 6 months old - after which it is usually rejected to prevent fraud/incase the money was paid by other methods.

The problem is that it can be tough for a company to work out IF they paid you the money or not - so its tough to persuade them to send a new cheque.... if its more than a few years, then they won't have records so will not pay you!!!

Nothing is ok. I acutally work for Bill Palmer. Our clients had a husband who died. When she went to get his Will, she found out that the safe deposit box was seized and all document simply shredded. Her great grandmothers pearls valued at over $80K were sold on ebay for $1,500.

Anything that does not have a value is thrown away or shredded. Letters from your grandfather from the war, signed christmas cards from Ronald Reagan, etc. - gone, disposed of.

The had the means to steal the money, but strangely they find giving it all back to be difficult.

The California franchise tax board is another crooked scam that blatantly steals property.

Titles, insurance documents, wills,etc I believe are ok. For sure, do not keep jewelry, gold, silver, cash or anything else that can be quickly sold in a safety deposit box.

wow - six million customers were screwed over? that's insane! I'll bet the bank managers were peeping in some of these safety boxes to see if there was anything of value worth ripping off. Thanks for posting this -- I have a box with BOA that we keep all our important paperwork in but was about to add my jewelry to it.
