No longer a customer of a bank - correspondence still being received

Around 2 years ago, I have closed all products with Lloyds. 1-2 months ago, I received correspondence from them regarding updated T&C's of online banking. It is the first correspondence from them since closing my products with them.

Why am I receiving correspondence/post from them, despite my accounts being closed a few years ago? Anyone had this situation with them (or any other bank) before?

  • Marketing gumpf sometimes slips through still.

    Contact them and ask?
  • ........Or an account you thought was closed is possibly open even if it is a nil balance?

    My wife received updated T&Cs some time ago even though her account was closed long ago. We doidn't bother at all and binned the letter.
