At this point, I think your email was/is the most effective tool against the firm that did this. Contacting the bank will probably not amount to anything. It is done, you handled it well, time to find a new accountant/tax preparer.
What I value in these forums is getting thoughts on my line of thinking before I do any action....call it a sanity check if you will.
I think that I will not send the email and not contact the bank. Reason being that they are rightfully owed the money no matter how I spin it. Yes, what they did is technically wrong but there is no harm on either side when I try and step back and view the situation.
What I will do in the future is merely just not go to them but I don't feel I need to write an email to explicitly say that the more I think about it.

You should contact the bank, but if you don't want to, fine. At a minimum, send the email. It may not have caused you harm, but who else have they done this to?
I agree. If you just leave without saying why, then they could assume that it was because of something that wasn't their fault. Send the email to the person you dealt with and the president of the firm.
