Why is Halifax closing credit card accounts for UK expats living abroad?

ORIGINAL POSTER
For UK Expats. Today I received a message from Halifax bank informing me my credit card account will be closed within 65 days. This comes right out of the blue. Just a heads up for Halifax/Lloyds TSB/Royal Bank of Scotland customers that you might be getting a message in the near future...

***Update. Just called Halifax and have been told a review has flagged you are not a UK resident so do not qualify for a credit card. Shame they told me 4 years ago it was fine and have happily updated my address to a Thai one 3 times, used my Thai number for their app and sent new credit cards to my Thai address 🤣

With the 60 day exempt entry coming this week (supposedly) does this mean there could be an ease of restricted bank account opening ? Thoughts 🙏
