Tbh my bank flagged a $500 transfer to my brother as fraud and it took 8 days to clear
I sent him money for a shared car repair using the bank's app. The next day, my account was frozen. I called support and they said the system flagged it because he lives in a different state. They made me verify my identity three separate times over the phone and by email. Honestly, it felt like overkill for a simple family transfer. Has anyone else had a normal payment get stuck for this long?

My bank did that last year with a $300 payment to my sister in Texas. The trick is to call and immediately ask for the fraud department. Tell them you're sending money to a family member for a shared bill before you even make the transfer. I have a note on my account now for my brother's info, and it hasn't been flagged since.
