Good day, it has also caught me and that despite my profession! When I went to the bank and could not get money from my account despite the order I became suspicious, at the counter it was then I would operate illegal gambling, whereupon I really had to laugh. He remained my attempts to explain the gentleman that it is legal, I trade also, has not interested him. With threat of account closure should still come a payment I left the building. Of course, this is now annoying for the bank because they get a lawsuit from me. Also the gentleman gets one. One should not put up with everything. Assumed allegations always lead to the fact that someone from the profession sits on the longer lever. Trading Bitcoin is not gambling in the legal sense. However, cryptocurrencies are sometimes used in gambling. According to the Money Laundering Act, the bank has to "report" effort conspicuous on the accounts. This involves higher receipts and unidentifiable receipts, usually from abroad. Unfortunately, an account can actually be terminated by the bank, it says in their terms and conditions. The bank has not contacted me either. I will leave the bank of course with a lawsuit on my part.

Which bank is this? The worst were the Raifeisenbanken and recently also the savings banks, where people have written here that they got the notice. But that the banks now also make problems, because you transfer your money on crypto exchanges back and forth I find very violent. This is the stupid zero interest policy and the banks now have to pay negative interest on savings. They used to make money on savings and now they are looking for more and more things to get rid of people because of their savings

Believe that you can not generalize...
Always depends on the bank/city/county advisor.
@needle:
With you that are probably but larger sums, right ?
Especially since you have recently written that you pay under 500 etc nix.
Think it depends then in doubt also on the sums. Small amounts are probably not as relevant as amounts that go into four figures.

The problem is that the gentleman was not factual, he always just said illegal gambling, has not listened to me and the costs I have incurred are not little. The bank has now apologized to me but that does not change the fact that I will sue them and take another bank. I find it sad that one interacts in such a way. The gentleman was released in the meantime

On what grounds do you want to sue?
You write yourself that the bank can terminate your account at any time.

Can ! But the bank is in the burden of proof my dear also the bank must inform you I am not a normal customer. In addition, one does not jump with its customers in such a way around. You can not claim anything and then threaten you have to prove it based on the transactions, etc.. The gentleman could not do that and he always interrupted me and literally shouted illegal gambling. He did not let me utter a single sentence.

The bank is in no obligation to prove whether you are a normal customer or an "abnormal", whatever that is

The bank can terminate your contract at any time and with due notice, but the notice period must be reasonable.
So, in principle, it can terminate completely without reason, the good thing is, you have exactly the same rights.
