In the last 12 months we have recouped over £1M for debanked customers (January 2026)
Been debanked? Had your account closed and monies 'frozen'?
In the UK in 2025, a huge 453,230 personal and business accounts, were closed down. This is an increase, from 2024 (408,000). The cast majority of these accounts were closed down without just cause, reason, or explanation.
Join us in the fight against debanking and unfair treatment by UK financial institutions.
The banks use discriminatory practices, unjust closures and funds deprivation, for little reason, other than to avoid further AML fines by the regulators.
Our experts are experienced professionals in the fightback against such behaviour, with the aim of recouping all funds and re-opening accounts.
“You managed to reclaim £81,000 for me within a few days. Thankyou so much. You have saved my business and my future. True professionals.... Thanks Pabo team...a wonderful service!”

"I had a dispute with a customer over a £110 payment. They contacted Barclays who closed my account and withheld £101,000 of my businesses money. The effects were catastrophic and my business nearly went under. As soon as I engaged PABO, there was movement, and 5 weeks after they took up my case, I received my money back in full! I can't thank PABO enough. Its no understatement to say they saved my business and I would highly recommend them!"
