IME the branch wasn't the problem. TD Bank's back office AML people flagged me for suspicious behavior (depositing substantial amount of money orders) after a year. The branch knew I was minting points and had no problem with it. TD closed every account associated with me including my minor children, a church group I was treasurer of, three businesses, personal, and a guardianship account for my incapacitated mother. TD wasn't willing to discuss it at all.
