power of attorney bank access denied by bank
my boyfriend is currently incarcerated and he obtained a statutory durable power of attorney form to grant me access to his bank account while he remains in custody there. after he had it notarized by the chaplain in the county jail, i turned in the proper form to his credit union. two days later,a bank representative called and informed me thst he had not in fact signed the correct POA form, and that it was ”too vague”. later that day i spoke with his ex-wife who then told me that after i had turned the papers in, the bank had frozen his account; which i can only assume was due to my actions. apparently they told her also that no one but david will be able to make any transactions but my boyfriend himself. now i am not a lawyer or anything (obviously) but this can’t be legal. it is extremly unfair for the bank to prevent me from obtaining access to my boyfriend’s money, which HE wants me to have. any ideas on what could possibly be going on?

This really is the kind of question that can be answered here. Sorry.
