Cringe take, but fair enough on the bank freaking out part.

My interaction with them went like this:

>staff: And what's your email address? >me: $BANK_NAME@$MY_DOMAIN >staff: chuckles

And on the next day I got my bank account flagged.

Edit: Turns out the restriction was not related to the email address. It was a red Canadian bank.

I would say large banks like Citibank, DBS or HSBC would never care to this since all external emails are written to have a huge 'EXTERNAL' in the subject and a disclaimer before the content.



Which bank was it?


I just returned from the bank. Turns out the restriction was not related to the email address.
