As a licensed bank, we’re required to watch for unusual activity. When something doesn’t fit the normal pattern, we may pause an account while we take a closer look. It’s never personal, and never without a reason — it’s how we keep the whole community safe. We’ll always tell you as much as the rules allow.
When an account closes there’s a review period before the remaining balance is released — a step we’re legally required to take. Once it’s over, you can withdraw your money to another bank account, and we’ll email you exactly how.
Sometimes we need to understand the source of a payment — a legal requirement for every bank, not just bunq. The quickest way through is to send what we ask for, like a payslip or a statement. We’ll always try to make it painless.
We think so — and we build for it. AI helps us catch fraud faster and answer you sooner. But the big decisions, the sensitive moments and the emergencies always have a human in them. Fast and safe aren’t opposites here.
