My aunt has made me a joint account holder on a current account with a healthy balance (on an either/or basis). My aunt told me that, based on her experience with a previous joint account, I must pay out at least one cheque from the account. If I don't, the bank will insist that the monies in the account go into her estate on her death. If I do pay out a cheque on the account, the entire account would automatically become mine as the surviving joint account holder. Is my aunt correct?
