Had a bank block a 6 figure wire transfer and ask me for "supporting documentation."
I told them my legal contracts are none of their business and if it was a problem, I'd take my business to my credit union because they don't give me grief.
Surprisingly, it worked! Feels good to make a bank bend the knee. Fully expected them to close my account.
