Expect anywhere to ask about source of funds.

Why not just pay it into your bank account?

Well, that's the real trick, isn't it?

You're definitely into "asking questions" territory if you rock up with £2-4k in cash.

Cash is no longer king.

Where did it come from?

Problem with that one is they only do up to £250 and charge a £12.50 fee for it. Bit of a rip off IMHO

Because I am getting out of banking

Do you remember the "Cash is King" and "keep cash" campaign

Getting back to the question, the cheapest option is surely to give the cash to a friend who isn't "getting out of banking" and still has a current account with a cheque book, and asking them to write a cheque on your behalf?

Will not work sorry, it must be in my name, its for my share dealing account you see and they WILL NOT accept payment from any other legal entity (how bad is that!)
