Mum-of-three left with £9 to look after family for a week after bank suddenly froze her account

A mum-of-three says she has been left with less than £10 to live on for the next week after her banking account was frozen without warning.

Lisa Cullen, 41, from Northenden, said she discovered her Suits Me account was frozen on Sunday (July 26) after her debit card was declined. She said she was given no notice and has since tried to get an explanation.

The account, which had over £120 in it when it was frozen, was used by Lisa to buy essentials for the family. Without that money, Lisa says she now has £9 to her name until next week. Her children, aged 15, 13 and 9, have also just broken up for the school holidays.
