Just wait for your turn to be 18, and if I don't think that there will be any fraud going in your account.No Unapproved or Personal links in signatures please - FT30

You can always open an instant saver type account with either bank or building society to pay in cheques.0

Why would this be any different? The OP is under 18 so any account they open, even a current account, isn't a credit account. They're likely to encounter exactly the same problem.You can always open an instant saver type account with either bank or building society to pay in cheques.0 -
Something is not right here, i held an account with a 'solo' card when i was 16yrs old. I paid my wages into the bank by cheque, could withdraw cash from the machines, and pay for some things, in some places that took solo.
The OP should be able to hold an account..0 -

One or two yes but here you seem to have an awful lot.
Personally I don't think its anybody using your account for fraud but they have suspicions about transactions and this looks like its been investigated and possibly a CIFAS marker on your file even if you are 17 (or is it a lot older).
If you have been investigated no bank will tell you - because that would be tipping you off which in itself is a criminal act.
I would be worried!0
