Banking My Way
What is Banking My Way?
We know that life doesn’t always stay the same. That's why we’re here if you need additional support with your banking because of a disability, health condition, impairment or if your circumstances have changed.
Banking My Way is a free service that allows you to record information about the support or adjustments you need to make banking easier.
The Banking My Way service is available to customers aged 16 or over in the mobile app or online banking. For customers under 16, parental consent is required and information must be recorded in branch or over the phone.

Common questions about the service
Banking My Way gives you full control of what information you share and lets you tell us how we can support you with your banking.
You'll find the Banking My Way toolkit on our mobile app and online banking. Or you can get in touch over the phone or speak to us in branch to get set up.
Banking My Way is optional so if you don't want to tell us about your current circumstances in 'About Me’ then you can just select the ‘Support me’ option and this will just show you the support tools that are available.

No. Banking My Way information is not used within any of our decision making for any lending or borrowing applications.
Banking My Way information is solely used to ensure that any interactions between our customers and our colleagues are conducted in the best way to suit our customers.
A trusted person is someone such as a carer or guardian who you would like to have with you when discussing items with the bank. If this is someone who has been granted Power of Attorney or Third Party access, there are limits on what we can discuss or action without that person present.
You can find more information on Power of Attorney and other forms of support available on our Caring for someone vulnerable page.
If your circumstances change or you no longer wish to have your information recorded, you can change or remove it at any time.
