Lloyds bank did this to me. They said that if I couldn’t visit every tenant and landlord every month and get them to sign where the money(rent) came from, then we would no longer be able to hold client accounts. We moved to Barclays who may now be doing the same thing.

Several years ago Lloyds. Of which I was a customer for over 30yrs asked us to get a signed document from each person/tenant and landlord that paid into our client account each month ie the rent. That would mean that every month I would have to visit every tenant and ask them to sign the form for money laundering and also see their ID. I complained and they gave some compensation, but would not budge on this. I had to move banks. I then had a money laundering issue that I had tried to raise with them. The police came straight to my office and could not believe that the bank manager would not even deal with me in person, he said that it was not a money laundering issue, (this was money paid from a diplomat in Africa), the phone line that the bank called put the phone down on them twice. The girl there was shocked as even she couldn’t get any help. When I said I wanted her name as the contact for this, she right got very upset and the assistant manager then dismissed the matter. The bank DID NOT DO ANYTHING. this was a serious matter that they ignored it. When the police turn up they do not mess about with these things, however they didn’t even talk to the bank. But kept reminding me of the possibility of a prison sentence of up to 14yrs :)

Two sides to every story. Having just gone through this with a long standing great tenant. Once she had passed her brother moved in. Stopped paying rent. Had works badly carried out at the property and ran up a £5,000+ electric bill in a small maisonette. We tried to help but he would not correspond with us. It was a deliberately ploy to live rent and bill free.

I have had this happen to me. Lloyds wanted written declaration every time time a payment was paid into my bank. Therefore meaning I would have to visit every person every month and get them to sign saying where the money had come from for their rent every month. It caused me to anger landlords and disrupted my business badly. I ended up with some compensation from them however reputations hard fought but easily lost. I was a client of Lloyds for 30yrs.
