Post Office banking

Check your balance, withdraw cash and pay money into your account

The staff at the counter will start by asking you to confirm it’s your account by putting your debit card into the reader and entering your PIN.

If you’re a Personal customer, you can pay money into your account using your Barclays debit card and PIN. Cash you pay in using your debit card will be available the same working day.

If you’re a Business customer, you can also pay money into your account using your pre-printed paying-in slip. The money can take up to two working days to reach your account.

If you don’t have a debit card and PIN, we can arrange for you to withdraw up to £100 a day at specific Post Offices. Call us¹ on 0800 169 3091 or visit a branch to find out more about this service.

Whatever you do, you’ll get a full receipt.

Many Post Offices also have cash machines, so you can withdraw money and check your balance there. If there are any charges, it’ll say so on screen.

Cheques

To pay in cheques, you’ll need a pre-printed paying-in slip and a cheque-deposit envelope. Fill in all of the details and hand it to the Post Office staff. Cheques deposited this way will take two days to reach your account.

You’ll find pre-printed paying-in slips at the back of your cheque book. You can order them and the envelopes by calling us¹ on 0800 169 3091 or by speaking to us in branch.
