Hi

 

I've just received a letter from HSBC telling me that they're going to close my business account within the next two months. No explanation and a rather aggressive letter leaving me felling like I've been caught doing something wrong and that they don't want to be associated with me. I've yet to call them over the matter. Anyone else experienced something like this? I've banked with HSBC for as long as I can remember maybe 25 years, I'm sure they used to be called Midlands back in the day, I have personal accounts with them, ISAs, credit card and a small loan all of which I will be closing and taking my money else where. Can anyone also recommend a good bank for a small business?

 

Cheers,

Chris.
