When I have payments like this I set up a SO for money to go in - and out , to/from another external a/c. I certainly wouldn't dream of taking out £1k in cash and then put back.
You need to move on and find another bank. If you are quick you could get a switch payment and say 'bye bye ' Lloyds! and earn yourself £100 /£125
I had a run in with the fraud dept at Lloyds some years ago. I was just trying to set up a SO after I had transferred money to other accounts over the w/e. They threatened to block account and make me go into branch to prove my identity! So, it is easily done.... but I don't and didn't pay in large sums of cash.
Being polite and pleasant doesn't cost anything!

The OP seems to answer like a BOT would to be honest.
So to answer his question - yes he can open a new account with Lloyds at some stage in the future and he will get a card and pin and be able to log into internet banking.
Then after a few days the Lloyds system will pick up the account details - the card will stop working, he will be blocked from internet banking and he will be back on here asking why?....then the letter will arrive to say his account is closed.2 -
