Compass Bank Froze my account Alabama

My brother in law that lives in another state owed me money when he filed his taxes there was an option for him to route money to more than one account. He then routed my money to my account at compass bank. They accepted the deposit froze my account saying he needed to come into compass bank with his ID the problem is there is no compass bank in the state of Louisiana. Now my money is on hold and they won't release it. Saying they are closing it and mailing a check. I called to see when check will be mailed and they tell me to go back to a branch. This is really bad business because if there was a problem why accept the deposit in the first place.
