If your application was made by post, then Internet Banking access is available for the following Personal Savings accounts:

You can also access Triodos Right Start Saver and Junior ISA accounts online, but you can't make payments from these accounts.

If you want to apply to manage your existing Triodos account online, download the application form below or call us on 0330 355 0355 and we'll send you one. Before completing an application form, please ensure you have read our Terms and Conditions for personal savings accounts below.

A nominated account is an account in your name(s) with either another bank/building society, or an existing Triodos account that allows you to transfer funds.

You need a nominated account for when applying for one of our accounts online and your opening deposit must be made by electronic transfer from your nominated account. Also if you want to transfer money from your account online, you must do so to your nominated account.

If you arrange a transfer between ISAs by completing a transfer form, your tax-free ISA status will remain protected and the transfer will not affect your ISA allowance for the current tax year.

Don’t withdraw the money out of an ISA yourself or move it to a personal bank account. If you do this, your money will lose its ISA status. This means that you can’t reinstate it and you’ll permanently lose that portion of your ISA allowance. If you choose to re-add money that you’ve withdrawn from an ISA, you’ll use up a portion of an ISA allowance, unless you have a flexible ISA.

The person with legal parental responsibility who opened the account. When the account holder turns 16 the child may apply to be the account operator.

Each child can have one Junior cash ISA and one Junior stocks and shares ISA at any one time. These can be with different providers.

A child cannot hold both a Junior ISA and a Child Trust Fund, with the same or different providers.

We are not currently opening new Junior Cash ISAs, however you can transfer funds from your Right Start Saver into an existing Junior Cash ISA, subject to the Junior ISA allowance of £9,000 for the 2024/25 tax year.

If after 60 days there is no deposit in your account it will be closed automatically. If you want to apply for another Triodos Fixed Rate ISA you can do so.

Log into internet banking and select your ISA account from the Overview screen.  Then click on the Account Details header at the top of the transactions table.  You will then be able to see how much you have subscribed to your ISA in the current tax year and any replaceable amounts of previous years’ subscriptions available to you.

Alternatively, if you do not have internet banking, please call us on 0330 355 0355 and our Contact Team will be happy to provide you with this information.

Yes you can. As long as your deposits are received within the 60 days allowed, if you open your account close to the tax year end you may be able to subscribe into your Fixed Rate Cash ISA for two consecutive tax years. You will need to check the date your last deposit is allowed, this will be detailed on your account opening letter.

Before the child turns 18 we will contact you to confirm that the Triodos Ethical Junior Cash ISA will become a variable rate cash ISA on the child’s 18th birthday. After this date the child can decide what they wish to do with the account/funds.

Yes you are able to transfer your Triodos Fixed Rate Cash ISA to another provider and can do this by completing a transfer request form with the other provider. Transferring a Triodos Fixed Rate Cash ISA to another provider can only be done in whole, not in part. Transferring the account before the fixed term ends will incur a charge equivalent to:

2 year term – 180 days interest

3 year term – 270 days interest

The charge will be taken from the account balance, so you may get back less than originally deposited. No charges will be taken for accounts transferred at the end of the term.

The notice period has been removed from Triodos Cash ISA, Triodos Saver and Triodos Charity Saver.  As a result these are now instant access accounts and no early access penalties will be applied.

For Fixed Rate ISAs withdrawals are not allowed until maturity. The only exception to this is if you close the account and/or transfer the full balance to another ISA.  Early closure will result in an early access charge being applied equivalent to a number of days of interest.

2 year term – 180 days’ interest

3 year term – 270 days’ interest

The charge will be taken from the account balance, so you may get back less than originally deposited. In exceptional circumstances the early access charge can be waived at our discretion.

Yes. As long as the child was a UK resident when the Junior cash ISA was opened, you will still be able to pay into the Junior cash ISA even though you and/or the child have moved abroad.

Yes. We will write to you one month before your fixed rate cash ISA matures, asking you to let us know what you'd like to do with your funds. You can then ask us to change your fixed rate cash ISA into another Triodos cash ISA, when it matures.

Alternatively, during the fixed term of your Triodos Fixed Rate Cash ISA, you can request to change your Fixed Rate Cash ISA into another Triodos cash ISA, but you will incur a 'breakage charge' as per the terms and conditions. The ‘breakage charge’ is equivalent to:

• 2 year term – 180 days' interest
• 3 year term – 270 days' interest

The charge will be taken from the account balance, so the balance in your new type of Triodos cash ISA might be less than originally deposited in your Fixed Rate Cash ISA.

There is no charge when changing to a different type of Triodos cash ISA on maturity.

For more details, see our how-to guide below on changing your cash ISA to a different type of Triodos cash isa.

A child may only hold one Junior cash ISA and one Junior stocks and shares ISA at any time and cannot hold a Junior ISA and a Child Trust Fund at the same time.

You can however apply to transfer a Junior ISA or a Child Trust Fund from one provider to another. You can also transfer between the different types of Junior ISA, in either direction.

• Transfers of current year’s subscriptions or transfers between the same type of Junior ISA must always be done in full.
• Partial transfers can only be done if they are previous years’ subscriptions and you are moving the subscriptions between different Junior ISA types e.g. Junior cash to Junior stocks and shares or Junior stocks and shares to Junior cash.

• The whole of the Child Trust Fund must be transferred and the Child Trust Fund subsequently closed.
• The annual subscription allowance for a Child Trust Fund is based on the child’s birth year while Junior ISA subscriptions are based on tax years. When a transfer of a Child Trust Fund to a Junior ISA has been made, the child can use the full Junior ISA subscription allowance for the tax year in which the transfer takes place regardless of any subscriptions made to the Child Trust Fund in that year. This only occurs in the tax year in which the Child Trust Fund is transferred, in subsequent years only the Junior ISA allowance can be used.

We are not currently opening new Junior Cash ISA accounts, so for now transfers can only be made to existing Junior Cash ISAs.

Moving money between ISA cash accounts by bank transfer will impact your ISA allowance. By bank transfer, we mean making a payment using the account number and sort code.

For example, if you paid money from a Cash ISA account into a Stocks and Shares ISA cash account yourself, the money leaving the Cash ISA would lose its ISA status. The money would then use a portion of your ISA allowance when it’s paid into the Stocks and Shares ISA. 

When you withdraw money from an ISA in this way, you can’t reinstate it and would permanently lose that portion of your ISA allowance. If you choose to re-add money that you’ve withdrawn from an ISA, you’ll use up a portion of an ISA allowance, unless you have a flexible ISA.

If you want to move money between your Cash ISA and Stocks and Shares ISA without it affecting your ISA allowance, you will need to arrange an ISA transfer by completing an ISA transfer form (see below).

For Fixed Rate ISAs withdrawals are not allowed until maturity. The only exception to this is if you close the account and/or transfer the full balance to another ISA.  Early closure will result in an early access charge being applied equivalent to a number of days of interest.

2 year term – 180 days’ interest

3 year term – 270 days’ interest

The charge will be taken from the account balance, so you may get back less than originally deposited.  In exceptional circumstances the early access charge can be waived at our discretion.

Yes you can. To make a payment in a currency other than GBP, log in to your Internet Banking and click on Payments and choose the International Payment option. You will then be able to choose which currency you want to send, and then complete all the relevant details. This is currently not available in the Triodos App.  The charges for this service are explained in the Personal Banking Tariff for current and savings accounts.

Please note the cut-off time for International Payments is 1pm each working day.  Timings for these payments being received vary depending on where the funds are going to. Please allow up to 10 business days for them to arrive if they are being sent outside of Europe.
