Although having a bank account become inactive is a rare occurrence, many banking customers experience it.
Frequently, a relative passes away and leaves behind a bank account without the heir being aware of it.
Nobody wants to see their money disappear, regardless of the reason an account becomes inactive.
Although the money technically still belongs to the customer, returning it to the state (where inactive account balances are sent) is a hassle.
An inactive bank account is transferred to the state treasury, where the owner must go to retrieve their funds, if service fees haven’t already depleted the balance.
