Starling bank reviewed and closed my account and is sending a cheque to my old address ..
it’s a £4k cheque here I seriously don’t know what to do? Can I get them to transfer the money to my other bank account? Or do I have to wait for the cheque I’m going out of my mind here of stress and worry
how long do cheques take to be delivered ?

Please give advice as they aren’t listening to me

how long do cheques take to be delivered ?Please give advice as they aren’t listening to meHow long since you last lived at the 'old address' ?Your previous thread about the abandoned property opposite your current address suggested you've been living there years IIRC.Do you still have Royal Mail redirection set up, and if not, do you know the owners of the 'old address' well enough to be able to get hold of the cheque? (bearing in mind it could be them that tipped Starling off)1 -

Ask Starling to cancel the cheque and give them the new address - do it on phone, messaging and writing if needs be2 -

As an example.Banks and other financial institutions treat honesty as having utmost importance. In your position I'd be less worried about getting hold of the Starling cheque, and more worried about whether there are other FI's I'd forgotten to inform about the move, and/or what will happen if the closure of your Starling account is due to some kind of concerns regarding fraud (i.e. if a CIFAS marker is heading your way)8 -
