Yes you heard me. My account was flagged for making too much money.
Anyone know of a decent canadian bank I can deal with?

The bank is not one of the major ones (CIBC, TD, Royal, Scotia, BMO, HSBC..) but it is still a large and significant one. I dont want to give any names because at this stage Im a bit paranoid.

It turns out they want to close my account because I am receiving wires from offshore companies. As you know a lot of companies are situated in Europe (such as Cyprus, British Virgin Islands, etc) and because I receive a lot of money from these companies they have flagged my account as suspicious and dont want to deal with me for reasons related to money laundering, terrorism, who knows.

So I was hoping someone can suggest a good bank I can deal with. Ones with good investment options, good customer service, and not a total ripoff. Any ideas?

I should note I had a business account with my bank
