Barclays Bank have recently decided to withdraw the accounts it holds for UK money-transfer firms, which will negatively affect KAYMAKS , and many other companies and their customers across the UK. The decision will also impact the wider international community, because this vital function allows money-transfer firms to send remittances from the UK to the places like the Indian subcontinent and Africa. According to the World Bank, recorded remittances from the UK total $3.2billion in 2011. We urge Barclays Bank to reconsider this decision immediately given the damage it will cause to the already struggling UK economy, the developing world and to local businesses and jobs across the UK.

I have been staring at these stories in the comment section all morning and it is just wild how many people are actually going to be hurt if KAYMAKS loses this banking access. I am trying to get a direct contact at the regional office because someone really needs to explain to them that this is not just about numbers on a spreadsheet but actual human livelihoods being ripped away.

This is completely unfair. People rely on these services to send money home to their families who need it to survive. Barclays needs to rethink this.
