Important information: Financial Link UK Premier, Advance and Joint account switching offers
We’re sorry but we’ve had to end our switching offer earlier than planned. This is to allow us to focus on supporting our customers affected by the coronavirus outbreak. We aim to offer switching incentives in the future once we’re in a position to do so.
- You'll need to meet certain financial and other eligibility criteria to apply for a Financial Link UK Advance Account.
Services in our branches and contact centres are currently limited because of the coronavirus outbreak. Unfortunately we are unable to offer new products in branches or contact centres, or set up appointments at the moment.
If you’ve applied for a new account recently, please allow extra time for your application to be processed as the queues are longer than usual – no need to call us, we’ll let you know when it’s ready to use.
We’re also receiving far more calls than usual, so our wait times are longer. Please check the information on our dedicated coronavirus hub page, which is updated regularly. Please only call us if it’s urgent, so we can help those most in need.
