What Happens To Money In The Bank Account Belonging To A Dead Man? by Aiholi(op): 12:18pm On Nov 07, 2016
I'm just wondering what happens. Does the bank pay the family members, use it for charity, or share it among themselves?

Ever heard of the phrase "Next of Kin"? undecided

If the next of kins name is in the letter of administration, then is easy to transfer ownership of account.

I don't know what the policy of banks abroad is in relation to this...but like I said before, no account is opened without the details of the next of kin. The next of kin has a next of kin/family too... U have the Probate Court... Take ur issue there. They will decide who the bank remits the funds to (Estate of the deceased).
