Open our everyday bank account

Your application will be completely online, and you won't need to post us any information or visit a branch. 

1. Tell us a bit about yourself and we'll set up your account.
2. Our partner Mitek will then check your identity by matching you to your Photo ID. Your Photo ID must be a Passport, UK or EU/EEA Driving Licence or an EU/EEA National ID card. We might also ask for a valid proof of address. You'll need a device with a camera to upload these. If you don't have your ID to hand you can finish this step later.
3. Once they've confirmed your identity we'll activate your account.

Please note, a partial switch does not qualify for any switch incentives we may offer. 

• Tell us about yourself

We’ll ask you some questions to get your account set up.

• Reserve your account

Once you’re done we’ll reserve your account and give you a reference number.

• Visit a branch or post your ID to us

To activate your account you’ll either need to pop into a branch with your reference number and ID or send them to us by post.
