The previous tenants in my house keep opening new bank accounts saying they're living at this address (where they no longer live).
I've been into the bank (which is also mine, incidentally) and because they're not applying in my NAME but my address, they just say, 'oh, mark them as no longer at this address, and send them back to us.'
Tried this approach only to find they've taken another account out this week. Grr.
And just called the bank again, who gave me a grilling to get MY details to even discuss it, and then proceeded to be completely useless again. They reckon I should pay out to some company for 7 quid a month to protect myself... why can't THEY sort this out - and why aren't they getting proper evidence that the people opening bank accounts live where they say they do??
