We'll take care of your bank account switch
Call 0800 515 462 3 if you run a smaller business, charity or trust and want to switch your account to us.
Dedicated support for established businesses
Switching your business account is easy to do and you’ll get your own Relationship Manager to back you and your business.
We know the coronavirus situation is a worry, and we’re committed to supporting you and your business through this difficult time.
We’re receiving lots of business current account applications at the moment, so it’s taking us longer than usual to process them.
Thanks for your patience and understanding.
Spend less time managing money and more time focussed on your business with our safe, secure Online Banking and our award-winning app1.
You can make payments at home and abroad, arrange cash collections, apply for borrowing and much more – wherever you are, 24 hours a day.
If your annual turnover is over £400K you’ll have your own Relationship Manager whose business banking expertise could help you gain an edge over competitors. They’ll act as a trusted partner to your business, as you manage, sustain and grow it.
You can meet and chat wherever’s convenient to you – in a branch, on the phone or at your premises.
As your business evolves we’ll help you adapt to new opportunities and challenges, connecting you with local business networks and our specialist teams who will share their knowledge.
We can provide tailored funding solutions and our International Team can help you trade abroad with confidence.
We have two Price Plans to choose from, designed for the way your business makes and receives payments.
See how much you could pay with each plan. Enter the details of payments into and out of you account for an average month (leaving any you don't use blank). We'll then calculate your potential fees.

Price Plan Guarantee
The way your business makes and receives payments can change over time. To make sure you’re always on the plan that offers the best deal, we’ll carry out a review each year. We’ll contact you if we think a different plan could save you money and move you on to it, unless you advise us otherwise. However, if you think another plan would suit your needs better, you can move whenever you like – just let us know.
We pay you back a proportion of the charges we apply to your current account on a monthly basis. It’s our way of rewarding you for being our customer.
