Petition Details

Force UK banks to provide sterling accounts for any one domiciled outside the UK and who has an income paid by a UK based entity.

Additional Information

The out of the blue cancelling of UK accounts by banks should not be allowed. The government needs to ensure that current holders of sterling accounts in the UK are placed in the situation where they cannot receive their income especially pensions in the sterling area especiall the UK.

Every British citizen should have the legal right to receive money and pay out money from their own sterling account in the UK.
