My late mother banked with the Royal Bank of Scotland. When she passed I was her next of kin as my step-father has dementia. My step-brother returned home from living and working abroad. He took it upon himself to act as my mothers son and executor of her will which he was not.The bank gave info to him about my mothers private account. My mother had lifted her money 6 months before her death for home improvements. My step-brother had said I lifted it illegally, the money my late mother spent was refunded to him.It has now became clear to the bank that my step-brother has commited a fraudulant claim and are dealing with him and want the money returned.Do I have a case against the bank for supplying info to someone who never should have had such info.
Hi and welcome to the Forums. Sorry it's taken a while for you to get a response.
I suspect that the bank have breached the Data Protection Act. I think speaking to someone at the Information Commissioner's office might be the place to start.

I am not an expert in law, finance or any related field, I just read a lot. Any advice is based solely on what I've read so please don't take it as gospel without checking it out yourself.
I prefer not to give advice by PM. If you want me to look at something, send me a link to your thread, and if I can help I'll reply on there.
Have I a case?
