You might clarify, are you abroad temporarily, or are you non resident?knowing that I am abroad
The account is not inactive and the money is clean. Why would the bank just close it without warning? They are aware I was travelling abroad.Stuck in the Philippines ?
Ask sumbody too send you a screen
Shot of the letter so you can read it yourself.
It might be an inactive account if your in the Philippines years.
Ok. Non resident 5 months, but again, I informed Ulster Bank fully my intentions and plans back in February.You might clarify, are you abroad temporarily, or are you non resident?

As it's a bank holiday here, it will be Tuesday before you can talk to them.
But certainly on a business account that I had and rarely used (switched when they had their IT nightmare and couldn't pay staff) they gave me 30 days notice that the account would be closed.
Do you have online banking where you can see the account closed or has it just disappeared, funds gone, or is it not allowing any transactions? I had an account with UB I had not used in a long time, got a letter in Jan asking for up to date id and signed forms confirming stuff, sent it back, got it again, sent it off again (pre paid envelopes) yet account is still frozen. I have just re read letter and it said that if they didn't hear from me the account would become dormant, no threat to close it!
After all that I spent half hour I'd say yesterday trying to get to speak to someone in UB about it, local branch told me ring wherever the letter was from and of course there was no phone number on the letter, anyway long story short they told me I have to back into a branch personally with id, couldn't answer ats to why I had sent off two lots of id for apparently nothing to be done with them.
I say it has been closed for failure to complete with the MLA requirements.
