Answer 3

Any one who has this information can pay any amount of money in to your account and generally it is very difficult to withdraw any money from your account. But there were reported incidents of setting up fraudulent direct debit transactions.Banks would repay those when you dispute those direct debits.

Those information might be useful if any one wants to create documents to steal your identity.
