UPDATE:
I went to my branch today. The guy told me it had been locked by the fraud team, so I rang them, and it turned out someone had cancelled my card and requested a new one. Not sure how.
But on to the joint account, I paid money in to the account to get it back down to -490 (£10 under the overdraft limit). Now I'm going to get my name taken off the account and the ex will pay me the £200 I put in to the joint account today.
Also, turn out NatWest have been charging £6 A DAY since 11 Feb (£180 so far) and were going to add this to the account on 1 April. However the guy on the phone said since I'm paying off the debt today, they would waive all those charges.0 -

Please get yourself a new account with another bank.
Just in case anything happens, please give the bank a letter telling them that any further debits from this account require your signature as well as your ex's, otherwise she can take out more money at your expense.If you've have not made a mistake, you've made nothing0 -
