Been a customer for over 20 years, used to receive tenants rent, my salary, pay mortgage, credit cards and tax and used debit card for theatre tickets, petrol, odd clothing purchase, never used abroad and never over drawn. Boom letter, no longer can continue banking relationship, so thinking it must be mistake, make appeal appointment with bank manager. Bank manager agrees with appeal, makes appeal against closure, and I hear nothing. Make second appointment with bank manager who adds further comment to appeal in my favour and adding his opinion that he can see nothing untoward with account or the way I operate account to add weight to my appeal and says he will chase weekly. I have been today back to bank and he said, he is hearing nothing back, nothing at all. My appeal is not even being looked into, decision made and account will be closed now in less than two weeks. Have four of five kids grown up with Lloyds accounts and my husband all waiting on Lloyds actually closing my account before they close theirs in protest. I don't want any family members or anyone I know treated like this. Meanwhile I have to have salary and payments in all altered to a another account, and all payments the same. No reason whatsoever given for their decision because apparently they don't have to, despite the local bank manager appealing on my behalf. Ridiculous.
