Maintaining a bank account in the UK

Upvote:3

The BBA Website shows 2 options available for non UK residents.

Maybe you should open one of these and move your funds and explain on your Visa application that you used to reside in the UK and have moved your funds to an international bank account.

Before you ask whether or not maintaining a UK bank account is allowed (it is), you should ask whether or not it would be wise to submit statements from such an account. A large balance on a UK bank account (especially with an address that is no longer linked with applicant) would be detrimental to a visit visa application. I don't see why the you have to submit such documents to prove your eligibility for the visa. You have to show ties to your home country, not the UK.
