• Give you the ability to block your card by sending us a text message
• Temporarily block accounts and debit cards if fraudulent activity is suspected
• Log you out of internet banking and the app after a period of inactivity
• Keep you up-to-date with the fraud protection advice
• Use a secure three-stage log in with a digipass for personal current account holders
• As a personal account customer you can receive alerts by text message when online or card transactions are made

If in doubt, call us on the number on our website, or delete the email without opening it.

We will not charge you for cash withdrawals from any ATM in the UK. However, some ATM providers may charge for using their machines to withdraw cash. There is a charge for withdrawing cash from abroad, please see our tariff for details.

Yes, there are charges for foreign payments. Transactions will be processed using the exchange rate set by Mastercard.

Screen scraping happens when you allow a third party to log into your computer while you are using it, so they see what you are doing and can copy the data on the screens you are viewing. This is a way for third parties to be able to get access to your payment data or account overview.

Triodos Bank is not in favour of this practice, as it potentially compromises the integrity of your own computer and your passwords.

Setting up a Direct Debit should be done through the company who will be claiming the Direct Debit. You can cancel a Direct Debit in the 'Account Information' tab in old Internet Banking, however you will need to contact the company who claim the Direct Debit to cancel it with them as well.

Yes, cheque books are not issued automatically as we understand that some customers do not require them. If you would like to order one please call our contact team on 0330 355 0355 to request one or send a secure message in Internet Banking.

Your old bank will close your old account as part of the switching process. This ensures that any payments made to your old account are automatically redirected to your new account. If you want to, you can switch and keep the old account open, but you won’t be able to use the Current Account Switch Service.

You will be able to continue using your old account up to and until your switch date, when your funds will be transferred to your new account.

You can send your Triodos Digipass back to us for recycling, using our freepost address – simply write ‘Freepost TRIODOS BANK’ on the envelope (you do not need to attach a stamp). We have partnered with a Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Recycling Scheme and will safely recycle all digipasses.

Yes, as long as both parties agree to the switch and you are switching to another joint account. It is not possible to use the service to switch a joint account to a sole account.

Triodos will be offering Open Banking services from 14 September 2019, enabling providers to integrated their apps and tools with our systems via their API. Triodos will only facilitate the sharing of your account information with other parties when you have provided your explicit consent for us to do so. Find out more about Open Banking.

How do I know if an Open Banking service is genuine?

• Firstly, check that the provider that you are thinking of using is registered with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to provide Open Banking services. See list of registered providers
  
• Before you sign up to a service, make sure you are happy that the provider you are using is who they say they are, and that you understand the service that they will be providing.
  
• When you sign up to Open Banking you will be transferred to our secure website. Check that this looks like the Triodos Bank website you are used to seeing and that the web address contains the ‘s’ in https://www.triodos.co.uk
  
• You will never be asked to share your password or login details
  
• If you are in any doubt whether a provider is genuine, stop and verify them before proceeding by checking that they’re on the list of registered providers.
  

• Security has been at the core of the development of Open Banking. It uses Bank-level security which means that it uses rigorously tested software and systems. Any data that is shared is protected and encrypted. It’s regulated, meaning that only providers registered with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) can provide these services; you have control to decide to stop sharing your data at any time.
• When you sign up with a Third Party Provider (TPP), we will check that they are registered. We will never share your account information with a TPP that is not registered.
• If you do decide to use Open Banking we will only ever share the information that you have chosen to share, for example, the balance of your current account, nothing more.
• Each provider of Open Banking must comply with Data Protection Laws and be approved by and registered with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). They will never take any action on your account without your explicit consent or share your account information outside of the agreement that you made with them.

The Current Account Switch Service makes switching current accounts to Triodos Bank from another UK bank or building society simple, reliable, and stress-free.

The whole process takes only seven working days and is completely free. It is also backed by the Current Account Switch Guarantee.

This service provides all the following benefits:

• Regular payments (in and out) will be moved to your new account, and payments made to your old account after your switch date will be automatically redirected to your new account. Please note this doesn’t include any payments received from abroad.
• Any remaining credit balance in your old account will be transferred to your new account and your old account will automatically close.
• The switch process will be managed entirely by your new bank or building society and will be backed by the Current Account Switch Guarantee.

The sort code for Triodos Bank is:   16-58-10

For foreign payments to a Triodos account the above sort code is not valid. Also mandatory information is needed to ensure a foreign payment reaches your account.

The debit card is made from a 'natural plastic' of compacted renewable resources such as plant leaves and corn. The card itself is now believed to have the strongest environmental credentials of any debit card in the UK market. Only the chip and strip are not recyclable.

Yes, bank accounts that include an overdraft can switch using the Current Account Switch Service, but you’ll need to have set up an overdraft with us. If you’d like to set up an overdraft please get in touch and we will be able to advise if you’re eligible for one, dependent on our lending criteria and your credit status.
