The BM even told me they cannot override decisions made by the RMG, they have to comply and close accounts of "valuable clients".

Therefore, it is best to keep in mind that NOT all CUs are the same (but all of them have *RMG or LPD); one's experience with THEIR CU has no bearing on YOUR experience with yours. YMMV. One has to do their own thing with THEIR CU and hope for the best. This is my opinion, fwiw.

RMG/LPD = risk management group/loss prevention dept
Well said. With any kind of volume, you WILL get a call from the RMG. How that situation is handled will determine if you get to stay with them.
