God loses bank account

An author who changed his name to God for a book was dumped by his bank.

Sheridan Simove, 35, had his HSBC account closed after changing his name by deed poll.



The bachelor, of Wandsworth, South London, said: "At first they told me I needed two names to have an account - so I replied that I'd become Almighty God."



HSBC said he must use his original name.





Yes, that's The world's local bank where you receive an exceptional service that puts you in control of your banking. Except if you want to change your name.
