Triodos Bank will not charge you for cash withdrawals from any ATM in the UK. However, some ATM providers may charge for using their machines to withdraw cash. There is a charge for withdrawing cash from abroad, please see our tariff for details.

To set up standing orders in the Triodos App or Internet Banking, choose the account you wish the money to be taken from and select 'Payments'. Enter the recipients’ details and the amount. Click the calendar icon next to the payment date to set the frequency of the payment and save your changes. Authorise the payment to complete the set up.

Standing orders are processed on working days, so if the payment you have set up is due to go out on a weekend or UK bank holiday, it will be processed on the next working day.

Chat in the Triodos App will be coming in early 2025.

To activate your card, use your PIN to withdraw money from an ATM or when making a payment. You will need to do this before you make any contactless or online payments.

Your PIN is viewable in the Triodos Mobile Banking App under More > Cards. If you have never used the Triodos App, your PIN will be sent in the post separately.

Yes, Confirmation of Payee (CoP) is an account name-checking service that has been introduced to combat fraud and misdirected payments. Triodos is part of the UK industry-wide scheme for incoming and outbound payments, and a CoP check will be performed every time you send money from your Triodos account. We encourage you still continue to check payment details in line with our guidance, and regularly review our website for information on how to prevent fraud.

Cash cannot be paid in to the Triodos Current Account. You can make payments into your Triodos Current Account by bank transfer or online. If you wish to pay a cheque into your account, you can send them via our freepost service to our office in Bristol - Freepost TRIODOS BANK. This is an untracked 2nd class service, however, if you are sending in cheques or original documents, you may wish to use our registered address (this will require a stamp):

Triodos Bank
Deanery Road
Bristol
BS1 5AS 

Please include the sort code and account number of the account you wish the cheque to be credited to.

You can withdraw up to £300 per day in the UK per cardholder from ATMs accepting Visa. You can amend this to up to £500 per day in the Triodos app under More > Cards > Card daily limits > Cash withdrawals. You can amend this in Internet Banking under Self Service > Cards > Daily cash withdrawal limit.

You can use any cash machines displaying the Visa logo.

To make things easier you can find your nearest cash machine here.

Remember, you can also request cash back when shopping with participating retailers.

Our chat opening hours are 8am - 6pm, Monday to Friday (Thursdays 9am - 6pm). You can still send us a message out of hours and we will get back to you when the contact team reopens. If you are not logged in to Internet Banking when they respond, you will receive an email notification.

Phishing is a common type of internet fraud. Phishing emails are designed to appear as though they are from a legitimate source, but intend to steal personal information that can be used to access your account.

Do not respond to any email that asks for any information in relation to your internet banking log in details. If you have received a suspicious email, do not respond and call us if you need any further information.

Our opening hours are published on our help and support page. 

Historically, smaller challenger banks such as Triodos had no option but to utilise one of the “big four” banks (NatWest Group, Lloyds, HSBC and Barclays) for payment clearing services.

So it is not unusual to see banks of Triodos’ size (or indeed some far bigger organisations) still utilising the “big four” clearing banks.

However, there is currently a real drive by the government, via the Payments Systems Regulator, to promote competition in the banking sector and to encourage innovation in payment systems.

This has resulted in a wider choice of clearing options (including alternative providers and/or direct clearing) now available to challenger banks.

While changing our clearing arrangements would be a very large undertaking we continue to review the options, remaining conscious of maintaining a high quality of service for all our customers.

You can send money from your Personal savings account via Internet Banking or the Mobile App.

The daily limit is £20,000.00 per day for Personal savings account customers.

If you opened your Online Saver/ Online Saver Plus via the Mobile App and went through the ID and selfie check you can authorise payments up to £20,000 with your mobile passcode.

Business Banking customers only can import a file containing a batch of payments. Normally you will create this file in your accounting software.

Go to ‘Payments’, ‘Batch Payments’ and click on ‘Upload batch payments’. The Import Payments page allows you to select a file for import by browsing any of the drives accessible to your computer. Once you have selected the file, you need to authorise the import using your digipass.

• Import file specification - batch payment format
• Import file specification - BACS format (agency transactions)

You can see a history of imported files, including status, in your Internet Banking under the ‘Account Information’ tab, on the page ‘Imported Files History’.

When you send money, we will check with the bank you’re sending money to that the name on the account matches the bank details you’ve provided, and let you know if they don’t.

One of the following results will appear on your screen:

The recipient account name is a match

Means the recipient account name you entered matches the payee’s account name.

The recipient name you gave us is a close match, but not exactly the same as the name held on the account

Means the recipient name you gave us is a close match to the name held on the account but not an exact match. We will show the name on the account you’re paying to help you decide whether it’s the right person. You should also double-check the details and request another CoP check before sending any payment.

The recipient name you gave us is not the same as the name held on the account

Means the recipient name you gave us is different to the name held on the account. You should double-check the details and request another CoP check, otherwise your money could be sent to the wrong account.

It is important to be aware that if you choose to go ahead anyway, and the account does not belong to the intended recipient, we may not be able to get your money back.

The recipient bank account does not exist

Means it may be that the recipient account sort code or account number has been entered incorrectly, or the account may be closed. You will need to check with the recipient if their details are correct before you are able to make a payment. If an account does not exist, the payment can't be made.

Unable to check the name, please try again later

Sometimes we won’t be able to check the name on the account you’re sending money to. That doesn’t mean that anything’s wrong. It could just be that the payee’s bank or building society isn’t using CoP yet.

You can continue with the payment – but always double-check yourself that the account name and details are correct.

We are unable to verify these details with the recipient bank at this time – please check the details before continuing
