Alerts

Keeping you up to date with your Personal Current Account activity!

An Alert is a text message notification we’ll send you to help you manage your Current Account. To receive Alerts we will use the mobile telephone number held on file for you. You can view and update your mobile telephone number through Online Banking.

This service is available to personal customers who hold a Current Account. For more information on our Current Account products see the Current Account product overview page.

Account Alerts

All customers with a Personal Current Account will automatically receive an Account Alert providing we have your up-to-date mobile telephone number. You can manage your Account Alerts through Online Banking. We’ll normally send Account Alerts between 8am and 10am Monday to Friday (excluding Bank Holidays).

Balance Alerts

A Balance Alert is a text message notification we’ll send you when your account has dropped below an amount that you set. You can log into Online Banking to set your Balance Alert. We’ll normally send Balance Alerts between 8am and 10am Monday to Saturday (excluding Bank Holidays).
