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

All banks have different ways of assessing if they would be willing to provide a customer with an overdraft or not and how much they would be willing to provide them with. Presently Triodos do not offer matched facilities, as a responsible lender we will offer you an overdraft facility based on your current circumstances and the outcome of our creditworthiness assessment. If you have applied for an overdraft and are not happy with what we can offer you we do have an appeal process, please contact us to discuss.

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.

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 our tariff of charges.

Yes, Confirmation of Payee, an account name-checking service, has been introduced to combat fraud and misdirected payment. Triodos is part of this scheme for incoming and outbound payments, and a CoP check will be performed every time you send money from your Triodos account. We encourage you still continue to check payment details in line with our guidance, and regularly review our website for information on how to prevent fraud.

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

There are daily limits set depending on the type of payment and how you authorise the payment.

We don’t currently offer Apple Pay or Google Wallet (Google Pay or Android Pay).

We are aware of how popular making contactless mobile wallet card payments is with customers. We’re therefore working hard towards delivering this functionality in the future and will notify our customers when it’s available. In the meantime, we ask our customers to carry their debit card with them to make payments. For customers interested in making mobile wallet card payments now with a Triodos debit card, there are other providers you can register your card with to do that, however, please bear in mind fees or charges that the provider may apply and consider what data privacy or security the provider has in place.

We don't offer unarranged overdraft facilities on the current account. Overdrafts are designed for short term borrowing.  We can offer an overdraft facility where there is a specific purpose to cover unexpected expenses, for an agreed timeframe up to a maximum of 6 months. We don’t offer overdrafts to be used as a buffer in case of need. Eligibility criteria applies, with minimum 3 months' salary required to be paid into the account. We do this to ensure we only lend what people can afford to safely borrow.  If you need to apply for an overdraft or to increase your limit please call us on 0330 355 0355. Our opening hours are published on our help and support page. 

When you send money, we will check with the bank you’re sending money to that the name on the account matches the bank details you’ve provided, and let you know if they don’t.

One of the following results will appear on your screen:

The recipient account name is a match

Means the recipient account name you entered matches the payee’s account name.

The recipient name you gave us is a close match, but not exactly the same as the name held on the account

Means the recipient name you gave us is a close match to the name held on the account but not an exact match. We will show the name on the account you’re paying to help you decide whether it’s the right person. You should also double-check the details and request another CoP check before sending any payment.

The recipient name you gave us is not the same as the name held on the account

Means the recipient name you gave us is different to the name held on the account. You should double-check the details and request another CoP check, otherwise your money could be sent to the wrong account.

It is important to be aware that if you choose to go ahead anyway, and the account does not belong to the intended recipient, we may not be able to get your money back.

The recipient bank account does not exist

Means it may be that the recipient account sort code or account number has been entered incorrectly, or the account may be closed. You will need to check with the recipient if their details are correct before you are able to make a payment. If an account does not exist, the payment can't be made.

Unable to check the name, please try again later

Sometimes we won’t be able to check the name on the account you’re sending money to. That doesn’t mean that anything’s wrong. It could just be that the payee’s bank or building society isn’t using CoP yet.

You can continue with the payment – but always double-check yourself that the account name and details are correct.

We are unable to verify these details with the recipient bank at this time – please check the details before continuing
