Re: Bank account auto-closed without my knowledge

Ok then.

I guess it's just me they don't like.

Re: Bank account auto-closed without my knowledge

No point now, the account is closed. If there was a couple of grand in there I'd be bothered, but there wasn't.

That would be ok, if they allowed you to "log in". Once you live abroad, they will not send you a new debit card once the current one expires. No debit card, no access to online banking.
