Bank transaction details

Hi, I have been asked provide 4 months of bank statements for a review and whilst I have no objection to showing the current balance, account no. and name etc, I dislike showing them what I spend my money on or what bits and bobs I have purchased , after all some stuff is very private.
Does anyone know if I am able to black pen out the details of transactions, just the names of shops etc but leave the actual amount showing.? After all is it relevant as long as my accounts show the current balance to prove I am under the threshold?
Any feedback appreciated

I appreciate it is not possible to get some very personal items by shopping in person and paying cash. But I am using card less and less as I dislike the idea that bank staff or any possible hackers might get an idea of my regular movements and purchases by my spending.
What I'd like comments on is what inquisitions are likely on 'what did you spend those cash withdrawals on?' should I ever have to submit bank statements.

It seems to be the norm that they want to see bank statements as soon as you go on to UC. I just don’t think there’s any need for them to poke into our business, unless they suspect us of fraud.

We’re just getting the cash out if the bank now too denby. They’ll probably just ask for receipts eventually.

What happens if we splash out on something that they don’t agree with, do we have to return it?
