During this time I had spoken to the bank and on 2 separate occasions I was told that it was the fraud dept. that had instigated the closure of my account, but the bank told the ombudsman that the internal markers on my name were to stop me opening another account in the future.

Do you not think that the fraud team (internal to them) placed these markers....

As this ''happened'' in March 2018 don't you think OP has already moved on or gone bust?

The OP clearly hasn't 'moved on' as they started this thread less than 12 hours ago.

Move on as in "Stop wasting time on this non-issue". Not as in "Move on to another bank"

OP has clearly not moved on, if they are thinking about going to court for imaginable unfair treatment.

I'm astonished that as a businessman/woman OP has such difficulties with basic contract law. You have a contract with the bank, the bank terminated it with sufficient notice as per the T&C of the contract (presumably). What is the unfair bit?

I understand how you can claim some loss of business if they had frozen the account, but that didn't happen as far as I can see from the OP. 60 days is plenty enough to open a new bank account (you really should have had a backup one in the first place). change the details on your invoices and notify your customers with pending payments of the change. Sure it would be some hassle doing all that, but it's just another cost of doing business.
