TitleWhat checks do you do when opening an account?
Answer

We'll confirm your address, identity and nominated current account details before opening a savings account for you. We'll complete these checks using a number of online tools, including credit reference agency databases. This will be done in line with our Privacy Policy. Please be assured that this is not a credit check, and it will not impact your credit score.

As a regulated bank, it's really important that we verify your identity before we can open your account. If we're unable to verify your identity, we won't be able to open an account for you.
