Please note that in order to protect our co-workers and to help reduce the spread of the Coronavirus, all our offices are closed to visitors from the general public at this time. This means it is not possible to deliver cheques to our office in person.

You can stop sharing your account information at any time. To withdraw consent you should contact your third party provider.

If you use the Triodos Mobile Banking App you can find this under ‘More’, ‘Preferences and privacy’.

In 2010, the United States (US) Treasury announced the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA). It is intended to prevent tax evasion by US citizens, residents and organisations through the use of offshore accounts and is a key change for international information exchange policy. Under FATCA, Financial Institutions must comply with a number of obligations, including reporting on accounts held by US persons, including organisations.

A number of governments, including the UK, have signed agreements to exchange data with the US. Triodos Bank must check customer records and accounts to identify US account holders and report information on them. To do this we introduced new procedures from 1 July 2014.

For more information please visit www.irs.gov or speak to your tax advisor.

If for any reason you need to withdraw your money earlier than the notice period, you will need to write to us by post or secure message in internet banking.

At our discretion you may have access to your savings without waiting the notice period for 90 Day Notice Online Cash ISA and Cash ISA.  However we will charge you the interest due on the amount withdrawn for the part of your notice period for which you have not given notice. So if you withdraw £500 on 15 Calendar Days’ notice from an Account set up on 90 Calendar Days’ notice, then a charge equivalent to the interest you would have earned on that £500 for 75 Calendar Days (i.e. 90 - 15) will be deducted from your Account.

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.

Instructions given in internet banking to make a payment from your account will only be carried out after the expiry of any notice period on your account. Any attempt to schedule a payment before then will be rejected.

You can send money from your Personal savings account via Internet Banking or the Mobile App.

The daily limit is £20,000.00 per day for Personal savings account customers.

If you opened your Online Saver/ Online Saver Plus via the Mobile App and went through the ID and selfie check you can authorise payments up to £20,000 with your mobile passcode.

If you need to make a single payment over £20,000 you can request a temporary limit change, for more details click here.

No, as the account is a savings account, and not a current account, it is not possible to have standing orders and direct debits with an Online Saver Plus.

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.

Yes. You can transfer an existing cash ISA to your Triodos cash ISA. If you don't already have a Triodos cash ISA, you will need to apply for one before applying to transfer your existing cash ISA. Find out more about our ethical ISAs.

When you log in to Internet Banking using the QR code reader in the Triodos Mobile App, you’ll then be able to authorise payments from your Personal Current Account under £250 with either your mobile passcode, Face ID or Touch ID. To authorise payments of £250 and above you’ll need to use your digipass.

If you opened an Online Saver or Online Saver Plus account using the Mobile App, then you can also authorise payments in Internet Banking with Mobile App.

We want to make it easier for you to use your account, while keeping it secure. So we’re gradually rolling out a number of improvements over the coming months, to give you more ways to authorise payments with enhanced security.

No, you can only open or hold one account (joint or sole) in any 12 month period.

We ask you to complete an ISA declaration when making a choice for your maturing fixed rate cash ISA in Internet Banking so that you are able to make current tax year’s subscriptions to your ISA if you would like to.

You are not obliged to subscribe to that cash ISA after completing the declaration and can choose to subscribe to a different ISA if you want and you are eligible to do so (as long as you don’t breach the ISA rule of only subscribing to one of each type of ISA in a tax year).

You can set up and cancel standing orders through Internet Banking or the Triodos Mobile Banking App.

Go to ‘Payments’ and choose the account you wish the money to be taken from. Enter recipients’ details and the amount. Select the start date and frequency then save changes. Authorise the payment to complete the set up.

To cancel you’ll need to go to old Internet Banking via the green ‘Go to old Internet Banking’ button in the top menu bar. Then ‘Account Information’ and ‘Standing Orders’. Here you can edit the amount or cancel.

Watch our how-to video on how to set-up a standing order.

In the Triodos Mobile App you can delete upcoming payments, go to ‘Payments’ then the ‘Upcoming’ tab and select and delete the payment.

This will depend on the type of payment.

For payments out of your account:

• Faster Payments will normally be received by the beneficiary within two hours of the payment being authorised but may take up to one business day.
• CHAPS payments authorised before 2.00pm on a business day will be received in the beneficiary account by the end of the day.
• The deadline for sending money outside the UK is 1.00pm, 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.

 For payments into your account:

• Internal transfers will usually be received as soon as you submit the payment in internet banking.
• Faster Payments and Standing Orders usually arrive within one hour of being sent but can take up to one business day.
• CHAPS payments usually arrive within an hour of them being sent but can take until the end of the business day.
• Cheques sent in by post are available for withdrawal on the third business day after they were added to your account. For example, if you send a cheque to us by post, and it is paid into your account on a Wednesday (Transaction date or T), the funds will be available for withdrawal on Monday (T + 3), although they are not cleared funds until the end of the following Thursday (T + 6).

 Charges will apply for CHAPS and international payments.  Please see our Personal Banking tariff for current and savings accounts for details.

Once you have opened your Triodos Fixed Rate Cash ISA, you have 60 days in which to deposit as much of your ISA allowance as you want to. You can only subscribe to one cash ISA per tax year. If you do not deposit your full allowance in your Fixed Rate Cash ISA you can invest the remainder in any combination of the rest of the permitted ISA types, providing you only subscribe to one of each type in a tax year. You will therefore not be able to subscribe to any other cash ISA in the same tax year as you open your Triodos Fixed Rate Cash ISA.
