They do what they want and you (or me or anyone else not on the board of directors) don't have any say over it. They could even have a daily lottery that randomly chooses a couple of people and have all their accounts permanently frozen/closed/cancelled with no recourse at all, ever.
"Today is Friday, the day we randomly select one lucky customer and shut off their account!"
That's why countries vote laws.
