What is the name of your state? NJ
I have an account with a major national bank. I kept some funds in my account and very rarely do transactions with this bank. Maintaining this account because I have a safebox with them.
While checking online, I realized there was a withdrawal of few thousand dollars with description "Other withdrawal". I checked this after 7 months of the withdrawal happened. Immediately called the bank, they found the error, refunded the same amount back to my account in few days. I was told it's teller's mistake.
If I don't check my account, then the money is gone forever. They did not do any audit and they checked this after 7 months only when I called them. If I walk into the bank, they take ID and debit card. They verify both the IDs to proceed. I was in shock because I never heard or see banks simply give money to someone else and without any verification or most importantly no audit there after.
Since I got my money back, shall I simply ignore or what are my options here?
