Bank sent balance to HMRC

We recently dissolved our limited company. Not long after it had been dissolved our bank ran a company check, saw that the company had been dissolved and sent the balance of the account to the HMRC. We have been told that we can't claim this money back and it now sits with the crown. Anyone been in this situation before?

What they did was correct, you are not allowed a bank account in the name of a dissolved/liquidated money and legally that money goes to the crown. Who wound up the company and why did they not distribute the funds and then close the bank account ahead of the company ceasing to exist?0
