Thanks Charlie, I saw your response just after I posted.

 

My bank, the Nationwide will not accept a forwarding service as my address as it is not 'my location' as required by their T & Cs. Neither will they send bank cards to a post box address.

 

But as they are quite happy to continue to meet my requirements I'm happy to be their customer.

 

What works for one doesn't always work for another.

 

 

Difference between mailboxes and forwarding addresses that are actual physical addresses. One of the latter is

and I have used one of their addresses to set up an EU (neo)bank and receive cards etc.

I noticed many people are from the UK here so maybe someone could help with her/his knowledge, experience.

I would really appreciate that.

     I lived, worked in the UK for some years (self-employed) and recently went back to Thailand.

I am not a British citizen but was granted settled status (5 years) in the UK.

I have no UK address anymore. In my HSBC UK bank I still have my old UK address and I know I have to update it asap.

I am not sure if I can have open bank account while not living in  the UK. Heard many diffrent stories.

In my bank account I see that it  is possible to update to the address abroad but I am not sure how the bank will react later.

I still have money in my account so obviously I will not be happy if they put my bank account on hold.

Anyone knows something about it or could advise what to do in this situation.

 

If I were you I would definetely opened an offshore bank account. For insctance, in Cyprus. No taxes and safety way to save more money for yourself. It's better to do it with the help of special financial services that can track everything and solve possible problems. I was working with this https://www.advancedconsulting.cy/ company . These guys helped me to open a banck account quickly and easy.
