having UK bank accounts but resident in Spain

My current UK accounts are charging a monthly fee for facilities they now say I am not eligible for. If intend to leave that bank and am looking for another. Brexit mskes this a challenge. The other  issue is that I also want to move my business accounts. My company is based on Scotland and conduct all my business in Sterling in UK although I do it working from home in Spain. With Brexit are there any challenges to getting UK Business Accounts but living in Spain ?

  • Current account - go online and downgrade the account to a fee free one. If onlinre banking does not allow this write to them.
    Business accounts - not my area of expertise - IMO you could face major challenges going forward if they decide they no longer want you as a business customer. Have you asked them about this perhaps they could offer you an offshore account in sterling?
