Not yet but if the bank is made aware of the PA15 will they prevent the wife from making any further attempts to access the account once they know she has signed the pa15
It's likely that the bank will require the Grant of Letters of Administration before they will restrict access to the account. The PA15 form itself may not be sufficient to prevent the wife from accessing the account until the Grant is obtained. It's best to start the application process for the Grant as soon as possible. Have you considered reaching out to the Probate Registry for guidance?
