    RBS declined my application.

    Ulster is still ongoing (got a message from Monzo saying they've heard I'm switching and given me a switch date of 27.02.24) but not heard from Ulster since passing verification

    Why did RBS decline your application? 

    Are they picky or just that your not in Scotland 
    I applied for an RBS account and they’ve allocated me this sort code and I live in England. 



    The only remaining branch of RBS in England & Wales is Berwick upon Tweed*. If you're in the west of England or Wales it's quite possible Castle Douglas is your nearest branch as the crow flies.

    (*Ignoring Drummonds and Holts, which have separate branding.)

    I have to wait 24 hours and speak to the specialist account opening tomorow and the AVU said I then have to go online to do the switch when they have opened the account.  Will update tomorrow with hopefully positive news
