1. We switch it
|
|
We contact your old bank to get a list of all standing orders and Direct Debits and send you the list to confirm it's correct. We then contact your old bank and cancel your standing orders and Direct Debits, we also send advice of your new details to the originators of your direct debit payments. You can start using your new account once this has been completed.
|
| 2. We help check things are running smoothly |
| We will then complete the process by closing your old bank account if this has been requested. |
Important information
If you're overdrawn on your old account
We will contact you to discuss repayment. Subject to availability of cleared funds in your account, we will arrange to repay your overdrawn balance within 3 days or at an alternative date agreed with you.
Do you make regular payments to a pension fund?
For your protection there are strict laws governing the financial management of pension funds. That means we can't instruct your pension provider to begin collecting payments from a different account. You will need to contact them directly to give them details of your new Bank of Scotland account. They can update their system to collect the relevant payments from your new account.
