Any questions?

You can now:

  • Login using your fingerprint (if you have this feature on your phone)
  • Apply for an eSavings account
  • Apply for and manage your overdraft
  • Set up and manage your standing orders
  • Cancel your Direct Debits
  • Use our currency converter to work out how much buying foreign currency could cost you and how much you’ll pay to use your card abroad
  • Book an appointment with a mortgage advisor

This is all in addition to the usual stuff, like checking your balance and past transactions, making quick payments and transfers, and finding your nearest TSB branches.

Spend & Save comes with many useful features to help you save. You can set these up in your mobile banking app. Follow the links below to find out more:

You can have up to five Savings Pots for each Spend & Save or Spend & Save Plus account – one for each of your savings goals.

There is a maximum balance of £5,000 per Savings Pot (£25,000 per Spend & Save or Spend & Save Plus account).

Visit our Savings Pots page to find out more information.

With Spend & Save you can earn £5 Cashback for up to the first six months, including the month you open your account. You just need to make 20 payments or more on your debit card each calendar month.

With Spend & Save Plus you can keep earning £5 cashback each month until you close the account, change to another TSB account or TSB withdraws the offer, as long as you make 20 payments or more on your debit card each calendar month.

To find out more information on how to earn cashback on your Spend & Save, visit our cashback information page.

An arranged overdraft is one that you arrange with us in advance.

To get an arranged overdraft, you must be aged 18 or over and apply online, in a branch or on the telephone. We then run a few affordability checks and, if approved, we let you how much you can borrow.

Once approved, your overdraft will appear on your account immediately for existing customers and in a few days for customers new to TSB.

Visit our overdraft page for more information.
