Almost seems like a bad idea to allow private companies to decide arbitrary criteria which they could block you from using the financial system (which is required to survive in a capitalist economy).

In the US, there's federal laws that ban using the banking system to fund terrorism. The bank would be legally compelled to investigate. This looks like it's likely in the UK, but I wouldn't be surprised if they have similar laws.
