It's not that uncommon. As a concrete example, I know that US expats in Germany are having problems with some banks because FATCA[1], a US law, imposes more controls over every bank in the world dealing with US citizens. At least one German bank [2] has stopped taking US citizens as customers, and I have informally heard of more.
