Refused Cashminder and Barclays Cash account

Options
After being declined for a Co-Operative Cashminder account - with them refusing to disclose any kind of reason why - I today visited Barclays Bank to try and open a Cash Card Account.

Declined. The reason appeared on their system as "Suspected Criminal Activity" :eek:

I've checked my credit files and the CIFAS section is blank, so I'm bewildered as a) why and b) where to turn?

    You need to check your record with National Hunter, they are the 4th secretive CRA.
