Payment on hold but switched banks

I sent money to someone but it was put on hold. What would happen to the money If I switched banks while the money was on hold? Will I get it back?
If the money transfer was put on hold, it's likely that the funds were frozen by the bank for some reason. In this case, switching banks won't automatically release the hold on the funds. You'll need to contact the bank where you initiated the transfer to find out why the funds were put on hold and how to get them released. Depending on the reason for the hold, it may take some time for the funds to be released. If you switch banks while the funds are still on hold, the original bank will still be responsible for releasing the funds to the intended recipient or returning the funds to you, depending on the circumstances.
