Its been 5 years as a C/O address. As long as that is still valid (or change it to your son's address if it is currently elsewhere) then it shouldn't be an issue. If they were sending mail which required a response and not getting it then it may raise red flags. Its still valid and I do get their mail

If they did decide to close the account they would give notice, but if that is going to a dead letter box then how would you know? I have the app

As long as you would get told of any mail arriving for you from the C/O address I wouldn't worry about it. I do so I will try not to

Its still valid and I do get their mail they can still send stuff through the app. I will try not to worry thank you

Why is it Barclays fault that you haven't found a house to purchase in the past 30 years? 

No, the account is 30 years old but it's only the past five that have been NFA....

5 years is still a long time to be sofa surfing. 

I imagine that OP will already be acutely aware of that, but they're looking for guidance about the consequences!

Hit the nail on the head there and guidance about the consequences please .

As above, are you just speculating about what Barclays might potentially do, or is there any evidence that they're aware of, and concerned about, your situation?

Is there income going into the account or are you just running down the proceeds of the 2019 house sale?

They can't simply keep your money but if it was to be frozen for any length of time, what would be the impact?  You might wish to transfer an emergency pot to your son (backed up with something in writing to protect you both)....
