    Hi beckypooh, 

    Thanks for your post.

    On your bank statement at the top it should say the name of your branch, with the branch phone number and branch sort code.

    If you need clarification on this please contact Banking 365 on 0818365365 and a colleague will happily look into this for you.

    What you need to do is dig up as much information as you can when you set the account up. So you would want the address used to set the account up. Other info like when you set it up and when you last used it would also help prove you are the account owner. Then just write to the branch giving as much info as possible and ask them how to proceed.
