Yes. Writing a check on a checking account that is closed/inactive is a crime. Customers are not supposed to do that and if they do, the bank can report it and take legal action against the offending customer. The customer can be fined or jailed for doing so.

The bank closed my checking account for excessive returned checks in the past year. They returned excess money to me after freezing the account and closing it. No money is owed. Can they report?

Yes, the bank can report this to ChexSystems. They will show that they had to close your account. Hopefully they will not put account abuse or fraud on your account because this will make it hard to open a new bank account. I recommend contacting them and asking them not to report you to ChexSystems, and get something in writing saying that your account is paid off. That way, if they report you, you can show you have paid it off, and a bank might open an account for you if they happen to still report you and you can show proof it's paid off.
