    I brought a VPS Dedicated Server from a web hosting company that cost me £1.000 but i was using direct debit to set up the payment but i cancelled it before direct debit came out and company refunded me the money back anyways and just kept doing it

    what does that mean?

    Whatever you have done the bank didnt like hence they closed the account, they are entitled to do that.

    My tip of the day for you is dont do whatever you did again, if you can get another bank account open that is.

    I was getting free money that’s what it means and weird thing its i got accepted with nationwide for basic account with the fraud marker on and it hasn't been closed yet it has been 2 weeks now I’m confused

    No such thing as free money, what you were getting was "Misuse of facility and false instrument paid in and CIFAS category First party fraud".

    Considering it sounds justified that's probably not going to happen.

    If you have committed a fraud (your post suggest you may have?) The first place to go is here: https://www.cifas.org.uk/dispute_a_warning_can_I_get_it_amended_removed

    Banks can open - or not - an account for who they like. If Nationwide have opened an account for you then I suggest you use it wisely and within the rules.

    ashleycha74, you appear to have edited out some pretty vital information which may well hold the clue for your CIFAS marker.

    It seems you were not entitled to any refund from the web hosting company but they erroneously paid you £1,000 several times.

    What happened to that money?

    Did the company realise that a mistake had been made and ask Barclays for the cash to be returned?

    Did Barclays contact you concerning the matter?

    Did you return the money?
