Lloyds Bank Froze All My Accounts
 

35 easy saver accounts
all gone
RIP

what bank do you guys recommend ?

Re: Lloyds Bank Froze All My Accounts
 

I cannot say that is a surprise

1 - Lloyds do not like mismatching names
2 - No bank will let you have 35 savings accounts

You need to keep it to 3/4 per bank at most.

Sorry to hear that, 35? Yikes

Halifax works for me(although some do not recommend)
Santander works
Natwest works
etc
etc

Re: Lloyds Bank Froze All My Accounts
 

are you serious ,35 accounts with one bank ?

Re: Lloyds Bank Froze All My Accounts
 

The worst thing you can do at this point is go and try open a bunch of accounts with different bank's.

If you already bank with another provider, and need more accounts, stick to savings accounts.

If you dont have another bank provider, you'll need to take a couple of steps back and let the dust settle. Trying to open a bank right now may backfire.

LOL

no problems at all

Re: Lloyds Bank Froze All My Accounts
 

I wouldn't LOL if I were you.

I would start to worry.

Not yet... Lloyds are netourious for shutting down accounts

Re: Lloyds Bank Froze All My Accounts
 

shutting your account down is the least of your problems.....you may not be able to open bank accounts for quite some time.

Re: Lloyds Bank Froze All My Accounts
 

35 accounts at one bank is pretty impressive

Definitely try to avoid that in the future.

There's more than enough banks to spread the amount of accounts you're using :spy:

Yes, hilarious, isn't it. :rolleyes:

With a bit of luck they'll catch on to you(r) fraud. Maybe then you won't find it so funny.
