wrong details

Hi there can any one help. On a visit to my bank (Natwest) last week i realised they have my date of birth wrong on their system. I thought i read somewhere that if banks make errors like this the account can be cancelled, including any overdraft i have on the account. Does any one know if this is the case?

    Never heard of that but I would obviously make the bank aware that it is incorrect since it will not tally with any ID you have.
    I have not worked for NatWest Bank since February 2009

    Afraid not. Just ask them to correct your details.
