So if all this hassle of having to go to the bank to withdraw funds etc wasn't bad enough. I was just to make 'other banking arrangements' within 60 days. I tired to reason with the bank that i could prove where all my funds came from, but they weren't having any of it. But that in itself is a short book of misinformation and drama from the bank) (I would like to point out that i did request a chargeback for money taken from my account by an online casino that i never made. I think this spooked their anti money laundering procedures and triggered a clousure.

When i pressed harder i was told it was because i had a lot of money in cash leaving my account and then if i won from the casino, placed back into the account, also big ammounts going in and out to various online bookmakers. Basically in their terms and conditions they can close any account they feel is in 'significant misuse'. As you can imagine i was confused and livid at the same time.Īfter a week of spending time in and out of the branch and on the phone i finally got an answer from my bank regarding what happened. So i called my banking provider and was told that my current account, credit card and savings would all be closed in 60 days time.

I just wanted to share my story with you regarding gambling and my soon to be former bank provider.Ī few weeks ago i tried to use my card on a trip down to Glasgow and couldn't transfer money into my account.
