When Barclays froze my account because they saw me buying Bitcoin, I treated the conversation as if they were about to go bankrupt.
I offered to bail them out and started wind up procedure against them. They quickly opened up my account again.
Unfortunately, my wife is less confrontational, so played the normal game, thus it took a lot longer and was more hassle.
