Recently I got a job working full time at a grocery store and have been saving half of my pay checks in a bank account my parents made for me when I was a kid. The last time I made a withdrawal was when I was 16 and everything went smoothly.
Today I went in and put probably 2000 dollars into this account only to be told after the fact that I could not withdraw from my account because I had been made only an “Owner” instead of a “Signer.” I was very visibly dumbfounded. The teller told me to talk to my parents and that the account should transfer to me when I was 18. The fact of the matter is that I am already 18 and have been putting money in this account for months.
My family doesn’t doesn’t approve of me or anything that I do and if I were to confront them I would most likely get kicked out of the house without anything but my car and the clothes on my back, dead broke.
What are the next steps I should take? I am thinking about making my own bank account but do not know where to start at all or what is required of me.
