Lots of places do this. Fidelity, for example, blocks withdrawals for a certain amount of time when some specific actions happen on an account. I believe address changes and adding people to your account with a certain level of access trigger the block.

One of those is Microsoft, which requires you to wait a month before changing your email, and there's no way that I can think of to get that expedited.
