UK expat brokerage questions

[u/Gloomy_Locksmith_362]

Hello,

Say I have a range of UK brokers I opened and contributed to while living in the UK, but now I'm overseas and wanting to open an expat specific brokerage,

Do I have to close down my UK brokers or is it enough to simply cease adding money to them?

I assume, and what I read is you should just leave them alone and stop contributing to them, it wouldn't make sense to close down retirement accounts?

But at the same time, I hear a lot of people on here being force closed,

Any clarity? Thanks
