I received a communication from ICICI BANK UK PLC stating that my Account has become dormant. What does it mean?
If you make no transactions on your account for a period of more than 18 months, then for the safety of your account and money, we would classify your account as ‘Dormant’. After classifying your account as ‘Dormant’ you will not be able to operate your account till you provide us with your latest proof of identity and address. Note: Your money in a Dormant Account will always be your property no matter how many years have passed. If you die it will become part of your estate. If the account remains dormant with no customer initiated activity for 15 years, it may be governed by the provisions of the Dormant Bank and Building Society Accounts Act.
