Zinger549 Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 Apparently his savings dipped under the threshold for a Coutts account. Natwest who own Coutts offered him an account on Friday. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what the minimum balance has to be. Seems a bit harsh to just close a customer's account. Surely he will have been given notice to sort things?

HeHasRisen Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 Why are a bank telling a media organisation how much Farage has in savings? Surely that is a data protection breach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People who have large amounts to play with usually get access to much better savings rates as a result. They are currently offering 6.09% on anything above £3m Edited July 4, 2023 by HeHasRisen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mart Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 That is not a large percent for such a large deposit. I think there is probably an ego element in respect of having an account there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need a personal account at Coutts to have a business account and you also have a personal finance manager. Having a business account at Coutts will have business benefits such as credit and status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
