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.
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.
Cash cannot be paid in to the Triodos Current Account. You can make payments into your Triodos Current Account by bank transfer or online. If you wish to pay a cheque into your account, you can send them via our freepost service to our office in Bristol - Freepost TRIODOS BANK. Please include the sort code and account number of the account you wish the cheque to be credited to.
Please note that in order to protect our staff 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.
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.
We realise that some customers won't want to bank online and that will mean that this account isn't for them. As a small bank we have had to make some difficult choices about the proposition and in an environment that is becoming increasingly digital we decided an online account was the right option. We considered telephone and postal banking but the costs to offer this service would have been overly prohibitive to launching the product.
To change your setting for SMS/text messages please log in to your Internet Banking and use the quick links in ‘Self service’ then ‘Settings’ to visit your Account Profile in old Internet Banking. Here you can click on ‘Mailing Settings’ to amend your text notification settings and then save the changes.
Unfortunately not. The account is online only (via mobile app and internet banking) with text alerts to help customers manage their money. However, our Contact Team is available to offer support should you have any issues using your account contact us.
If your available balance is less than the monthly fee it will still be taken, this may result in an unarranged overdraft. If this happens we will charge you the same interest rate that we charge for an arranged overdraft, you won't be charged any additional fees. If you are experiencing financial difficulty please contact us or seek advice from an independent support service such as the citizens advice bureau or the money advice service
You can withdraw up to £300 per day (subject to available funds in your account) , per account holder, from ATMs accepting MasterCard globally (except for ChangeGroup ATMs). For detail regarding charges for using your card abroad please see out tariff of charges.
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.
