hello everyone
I was banking with Natwest and maintained 800 pounds for a consecutive period of 90 days. When my funds were 60 days old (completed two months of maintenance) i received a letter form Natwest Account Closure Team stating that my account will be closed within 60 days and they didn't mention any reason for their action.
The letter sounded bizarre to me and i ran to the Natwest bank with the letter from the Account Closure Team and have shown it to one of the officals over there, he sounded helpless and advised me speak to the Closure Team by ringing the number which was on the letter. I have done the same and explained my situation to the team and requested the team to allow me another couple of months before closing, but he denied and was repetitively saying that nothing was within the hands of Closure Team. After this i rang couple of numbers met some people but everything was in vain.
Finally I told to myself that anyhow i am going to complete 90 days and will get my statements. Now my student visa was about to expire on 31st Jan 2011, Accounts in Natwest Bank will be closed on 14 Feb 2011. I got my bank statements on 17 Jan 2011, filed my visa on 28 Jan 2011. Got my ACK on 4 Feb 2011, Biometric Letter on 9 Feb 2011, given Biometrics on 10 Feb 2011 and now i am waiting for the decision.
Question is, is there any problem if my bank account gets closed for processing my application...? because what i have heard is after giving biometrics, processing or verification of documents takes place. Will they call Natwest bank and enquire about me and my funds. Moreover At the moment i am not maintaing any funds with any bank.
Since i have given biometrics on 10 Feb 2011 and Bank Account got closed on 15 Feb 2011 what are my chances..?
