Bank Account after Divorce: Tier 1 General dependant

Post by MinalDapse » Sun Jun 09, 2013 10:35 am

Hello. I am in a bit of troubled situation and wonder if you can give some advice. I got divorced 8 months back.My ex-husband has been in UK on Tier 1 general migrant. I am back in India now and our divorce proceedings were finished in India. I have significant amount of money (which I have earned through my hard work) in my bank account in the UK and want to know what the procedure is to get it back. My ex-husband no longer has control over the bank account but my registered address in the bank is my ex-husband's UK address and he might be getting my statements at his house. I can check my account online and he has not yet made any mess with it. But now that I am in India I want to know the procedure to get the money back. I fear the bank may freeze my account if I inform them that I am in India so have not contacted them yet. I keep on using the cash in India with my debit card but I a charged a lot of premium and if I loose my card/or machine takes my card I am in trouble.

Request you to please desist from giving a guess advice because I fear I may loose all my money if I do something based on a guess.

further information: My ex-husband still lives in UK as Tier 1 General Migrant. I was in the UK with him on a dependant visa. The Bank account is solely in my name.

PS: sorry if this is on the wrong forum. I tried to find the best place to put this question. If it is in the wrong place on the forum please guide me where to put it.

Call the bank. They won't freeze your account simply because you are resident overseas.
