2. Use contactless to avoid handling cash

 

To avoid handing cash, use contactless and mobile banking to make easy and secure payments in seconds.

 

  • We have increased the limit for contactless payments to £45. If your debit or credit card can be used for contactless, it has a symbol.

4. Support for the vulnerable

 

Some of our customers may not be familiar with banking from home. We now have more support for you:

 

We have a dedicated phone line for customers who are over 70, their carers or those who are shielding for medical purposes. Call us on: 0345 646 0319

 

You can ask us for help if:

  • You need help to organise banking from your home
  • You are caring for one of our customers and need support with banking arrangements
  • You are worried that someone else has control over your money without your permission

You can nominate someone you trust to take cash out if you are shielding and unable to visit a branch.

5. Stay alert 

 

Fraudsters are using the publicity around COVID-19 to pose as genuine organisations, including bank staff, government and health service officials. They are claiming to help keep your money safe, or to offer investment or medical advice at a cost.

 

Remember, we or any other official organisations will never ask you to transfer money to another account. We will never ask you for personal financial information such as your PIN over the phone, by email or by text.
