When building your experience, you will want to query for the financial account status while loading your account holder's information. Accounts may be placed under review and the account may be blocked from some tasks in your product.
The accountStatus
indicates the overall state of a Financial Account and may also include an accountAttribute
that adds restrictions.
For example, a Financial Account that is flagged for suspicious activity may have its accountStatus
set from ACTIVE
to UNDER_REVIEW
.
Status | Description |
---|---|
ACTIVE | The Financial Account is open and active. |
SUSPENDED | The Financial Account is suspended and may have certain temporary restrictions in place. Fraudulent activity may be associated with the Financial Account. The Account Holder may need to contact customer support to resolve any issues prior to the account being reinstated. |
UNDER_REVIEW | The Financial Account is under investigation by a Highnote agent for unusual activity and may have temporary restrictions in place. The Financial Account will be moved to an ACTIVE or CLOSED state once the internal investigation is complete. The customer will be contacted by a Highnote agent if necessary. |
PENDING_CLOSURE | Financial Account closure is in progress. Restrictions are in place to allow an agent to resolve pending actions on the account prior to closure. |
CLOSED | The Financial Account is Closed. This is a terminal State and cannot be reversed. |
Account attributes are added and removed exclusively by Highnote.
