I have received such a letter from Cynergy but it took 3 weeks to get here. I know of one other person who has received the same letter.

Fortunately not since we maintain a home in the UK.

A colleague of mine from when we lived in Cyprus informed me a couple of days ago she's had a letter to tell her that her UK bank is being closed. She's been in Cyprus around 13yrs now.

It's being discussed in depth at the moment on an expat Brexit facebook group I am a member of and someone has said there's a dedicated fb group that's banking specific although for residents in all EU countries not just Cyprus who are affected:
