Contact your Ch 7 Trustee, they are usually pretty prompt and good about
sending a letter to release the account. They're used to doing that with
WF.
Good luck.

The sole reason given is the filing of a chapter 7 bankruptcy. The client does not even owe Union Bank any money. Anyone else have this experience? Why in the world would a bank behave this way -r the Debtor?

Wells Fargo and Union Bank are the two institutions that have for years
commonly frozen Chapter 7 debtors' accounts simply because a Chapter 7 isfiled. They do this out of fear of liability for allowing an asset of thebankruptcy estate to be dissipated. To say the least their policy is overly
cautious, if not paranoid.
