i have a bank account with lloyds tsb since 2009 but i got 3k overdraft last year 0ct and i got a letter that my account will be closed within 60days,which means i must repay d overdraft. i used my account very well because after my wages and direct debit,i got money from my parent from nigeria every month in which i put into my account,at times i got income of 16k if i need to buy some things to nigeria through the money my parent sends,but my monthly balance could be just only £100 at d end of d month,i dont know why my acct should b closed and expect me to refund d overdraft 3k within 2month,and d bank told me if i dont pay it at that time,it will be passed to debt recovery,and i told them to let us make arrangement of £500 ever month but they said they will pass it to debt recovery if i dont pay within 60days,im working and i can be paying it monthly but is it going to affect my credit rating,plsss help me out and advice me plssss0
