Good, but I stand by my previous statement having read your other 
posting. I detect form your terminology, i.e. tellers, that you are not 
from UK or possibly even in UK.

The terminology we use is CHAPS for intra UK same day value transfers. 
That woman was more used than I to your use of the word 'wire'.

When you used your UK account had you left it dormant for some time, or 
were you accessing it from abroad? If so then latest money laundering 
rules in UK would have triggered the response you got, especially by RBS 
who were recently fined a lot of dosh for not properly following these 
loony laws.
