SunTrust Bank Bank account or service department,

Checking account Account opening, closing, or management Georgia

I have been locked out of my checking account with Suntrust bank for 2 weeks. After speaking with customer service, I was told it was locked due to a questionable check. I went into a branch and they told me it was turned over the the fraud department and told me it was a check for - from -, which was my daughters payroll check. She had deposited - prior to this with no issues. My daughter contacted the payroll department at her work and they assured her the check was fine. They emailed a few days later and told her the check cleared on the - of - which was the day after she deposited it. A Suntrust employee at the branch spoke very rudely to me and treated me as if I were in the wrong. She told me I had to just wait and see if Suntrust wanted to terminate the relationship they have with me. Meanwhile they would hold on to my money with no further explanation. When I asked why someone did n't call me or contact me when the check in question arose, she said she could n't speak to me about it any further and I would have to just wait to hear from them. I asked how long that would be, she said indefinitely. I asked by what means they would contact me and she stated it would be either by phone, email or regular -. It has been 2 weeks and I have heard nothing and my account is still unobtainable.
