Six months free day-to-day banking

You’ll receive six months free day-to-day banking as a way of saying thanks for moving your account to Lloyds TSB.

Benefits of free banking

We won’t charge you for:

  • paying in or taking out cash,
  • paying in or issuing cheques,
  • standing orders or direct debits.

There is no limit on deposits or withdrawals and no minimum account balance required.

All we ask is that you keep your account within agreed limits, for example not going overdrawn without agreeing with us first.

When your free banking period is over

When your free banking period ends our Business Extra Tariff will apply. You can choose to remain on this tariff and earn credit interest. If you use electronic or automated ways of banking then you may prefer our Electronic Business Tariff, which includes lower cost charges for those types of transactions if a credit balance of £1+ is maintained. This account does not pay credit interest.
