Internet Banking is a secure and easy way to manage your money online. You can check your balance, pay your bills and manage standing orders and Direct Debits - and you can do it all at home at your own leisure, 24/7*.
Online fraud guarantee We use a combination of hardware and software encryption devices to protect your accounts and personal details. We guarantee if any money is taken from your account through a computer crime, we will repay it in full, providing you have complied with our terms and conditions (PDF , 291kb). Naturally, we expect you to do a few things to protect your account: never disclose your password to anyone (we will never ask for your password in full), keep your PC secure, always access Personal Internet Banking by typing in the web address, never from a link in an e-mail and always log off when you've finished your transactions. .
