Barclays Savings Account

I opened a barclays savings account in june got a letter through 10 of july saying its being closed, There reason was i didn't meet there criteria for a savings accounts.

I am really confused as i thought they didn't do credit checks etc on accounts like this. Thats just by reading whats on MSE. I must have something seriously against my name as i cant get any sort of bank account now.

Advice will be appreciated.

    Go into branch, or call them to see if they can give a reason.

    How much money do you have in there?
