NatWest has frozen my business account, can I make a claim against them?
Well, where do I start!
Natwest today has frozen my business account and stopped our debit cards, all because we haven’t filled in a form to explain to them the company structure, can they do this?
A bit of context, we have been trading for nearly 130 years, and have banked with them since the 1970’s, have no debt and a very healthy current account.
I was told on the phone they had tried to contact us several times via email, which is true but all went to our junk server, and it was only Friday we found out and did exactly as we were advised on the website that afternoon.
Today, our current account has disappeared from my phone app and online banking, and after a lengthy phone call have been told it will take a minimum of 2 business days to sort.
Is this legal? Do we have any recourse? We have a payroll to run this week along with suppliers to pay and direct debits going out?
Any info appreciated, pulling my hair out here….
