Yes, if the bank become aware of a dispute between joint account holders they can revoke the original mandate until such a time that you both sign a new mandate (instruction as regards the operation of the account).
I honestly don't know what the situation would be in your case. I know of a couple whose joint account was frozen by the bank following an innocent conversation with a bank cashier, but their break-up was pretty amicible & they both signed a new mandate allowing either/or to make withdrawals. It can be at the discretion of the individual bank. Your best bet would be to consult your solicitor.Do you know if it may be possible to have this revoked or to have some funds freed up if my solicitor becomes involved? If anyone has any input or has been through something like this, I would really appreciate any input.
That link is to a UK based site.I've never heard of that. When the account was originally opened it would have been a joint and several bank account. Withdrawls would have been payable to both or to either. When a change is made to this account both parties would have to sign a "change of instructions" form.
It would http://www.moneyexpertise.co.uk/joint-bank-accounts-pros-cons.html appear that one person here was able to make a change without the others wishes.

If you do a google search for joint account terms & conditions for any bank/building society operating in ROI, you will come across their procedures for dealing with joint accounts when they become aware of a dispute between account holders.
He's indicated he will sign but only if he can take out a few thousand euro for his own use.
