really? why kind of business do you work for? do you have a date to come back in for a meeting?
Then you are entitled to ask.

Take a witness with you, and ask to be advised of the reason for your suspension.

make detailed notes, and get your Union Rep involved today - if you are not a Union member, join today.
go to a solicitor or CAB.

this firm must be pretty ignorant if they feel they can suspend you without reason
So you tell us and not ask them?
They have to tell you why - how do you know that you are suspended? You should have it all in writing.

have a look at the ACAS website, they are very helpful on employment matters and the advice is free.
Mind you, this is the OP's first post...
It is surprising you have not been informed of the reason for your suspension, which hopefully was with pay, whilst an investigation is carried out into the alleged reason for the suspension. If you have not been informed that a letter is being sent with the alleged reason, you should ask either the HR dept or the person who informed you of your suspension to explain.

After the investigation you should be invited to a meeting to discuss the alleged reason, if the decision is against you an appeal is possible and if you are dismissed you will have the remedy of an employment tribunal if you have at least one year of service. If you are a member of a trade union now is the time to speak to them.
Bit like some chat sites then....................
Just a few questions to help clarify the situation. You asked them the reason? You been suspended on full pay? You been told how long for? How long you worked there?- if less than a year they can dismiss you for almost any reason.
