Can the ECO Check my Bank Balance?

[Terpe]

Thats Terpe, very helpful, really appreciate your knowledge and taking the time to reply and I hope others are helped by that too. I don't need to be stressing about my balance being a lower or more etc everyday now.

yellowcloud, actually balances change almost everyday.
Please rest assured neither UKBA or any other government agency (apart from the Official Receiver) can access your current personal details.

Of course UKBA can make verification checks during their processing. It depends just how smart they are at asking questions outside of your submitted documents.

But normally you shouldn't worry about such things.
Of course if you have deliberately deceived UKBA in a major way and they discover that, then you may be in some deep doo-doo
But a normally changing bank balance does not enter into that equation. Your submitted bank statements can be up to 28 days out of date and still be OK for visa purposes.
Just relax
