As a joint Account holder, the liability under these Terms is joint and several. This means that you and any joint Account holders are liable together, but also individually.

As soon as one of you tells us that another joint Account holder is no longer allowed to authorise transactions, or if we reasonably believe transactions should be authorised by you both jointly, we will suspend the Online Banking Service on that Account.

Authorised Persons

You may request that we provide a third party with the ability to view your Account, input information in relation to your Account, operate your Account or accept instructions in relation to your Account by completing and signing the Online Banking Mandate. You will be able to nominate third party users and limit their activities in relation to each of your Accounts via the Online Banking Service. On the Online Banking Mandate, we will ask you verify any third party user and to set parameters in respect of their activities in connection with your Account. We may require additional identity documents for each Authorised Person. You should be aware that if you allow a third party user to provide us with instructions in respect of any of your Accounts, then the third party user will be able to administer your Account and effect transactions on your behalf via the Online Banking Service.

You will be responsible for the actions and omissions of any Authorised Persons on your Mandate as if they were your own actions and omissions.

You will procure that all your Authorised Persons will, at all times, adhere to these Terms, to the conditions of use in respect of the Website and to any other instructions which we may issue from time to time in respect of the Online Banking Service.

You need to make sure you give us the right details so that we can ensure your Payment Transaction goes to the right account.

We explain this is more detail in the Banking Terms & Conditions.

The execution time for Payment Transactions depends on the method of transmission and the currency involved. Please refer to the Payment Times Document available on the Website for more information on Payment Transaction cut-off times and to our Banking Terms & Conditions for further information on our Business Hours and Business Day.

You can send us your Payment Instruction using the secure messaging function of the Online Banking Service as set out at term 3.8. A Payment Instruction sent to us via a message will not be simultaneous with your required Payment Transaction, so you should always allow for processing time when planning your Payment Instructions and Payment Transactions. If you send Payment Instructions by a message outside the specified cut-off times set out in the Payment Times Document, the Payment Instruction will not be processed until the next Business Day. You should not rely upon any of your Payment Instructions or requests as having been complied with, unless and until the relevant Payment Transaction status report on the Online Banking Service indicates that your Payment Transaction is confirmed or otherwise complete.

We may refuse to follow Payment Instructions, or delay a payment, where we have reasonable grounds to do so. If, at any time we suspect a security breach or threat, mistake or fraud, we may delay processing your instructions or responding to your communications or we may suspend the Online Banking Service as contemplated by terms 7.1.4 and 7.8. We explain this in more detail in the Banking Terms & Conditions.

If this happens, you and any other Authorised Persons and Third Party Providers may not be able to access some or all of our Online Banking Service until the reason for suspending, restricting or blocking it ends, and we may ask you to use new Security Details.

we have reasonable grounds to suspect a breach or a potential breach of security of your Account or the Digital Banking Services;

we have reasonable grounds to suspect unauthorised or fraudulent use of your Security Details or the Digital Banking Services;

we have reasonable grounds to suspect you have knowingly given us false information about yourself or another account holder.

Copyright

The copyright and all other intellectual property rights in the material contained in the Website and the Digital Banking Services, together with the design, text and graphics, and their selection and arrangement, and all software compilations, underlying source code and software (including applets) belongs to us or our licensors. All rights are reserved. None of this material may be reproduced or redistributed without our prior written permission. We acknowledge however that you may wish to store information concerning your Account. Accordingly, you may store or print a single copy for your own, off-line viewing.

Charges

We do not currently charge to use the Digital Banking Services or using your Card via a Digital Wallet. Our usual charges for use of your Card will continue to apply. Your internet provider, mobile network operator, Digital Wallet Provider or any other third party may charge you when using your Device to access the Digital Banking Services or a Digital Wallet, and it is your responsibility to pay these charges. Charges may vary if you use the Digital Banking Services or the Digital Wallet abroad.

We do not charge to download the Applications from an Application Store.

Charges in relation to Payment Transactions will apply as set out in our published Charges Documents.

Security

We use two-factor authentication to verify your identity and validate your instructions. This means at times you will need to provide an additional form of identification so we can ascertain it is you accessing the Digital Banking Services, making a Payment Transaction or carrying out certain actions through the Digital Banking Services (such as setting up a new payee).

When you initiate a Payment Instruction the authentication will be linked to the payee and payment amount. If any changes are made to your Payment Instruction whilst the authentication is in progress, the authentication will fail and you have to re-start the authentication process.

If you are requested to authenticate a Payment Instruction, but you have not initiated such a Payment Instruction or otherwise carried out any action to this effect, you must not provide any authentication and you must contact us immediately on +44 (0)20 7012 2500.

If a Device in respect of which you are using the Digital Banking Services or a Digital Wallet is lost or stolen, or your Security Details compromised, you must contact us immediately on +44 (0)20 7012 2500.

You must observe at all times the following security duties in relation to your Security Details to prevent unauthorised or fraudulent use. You must:

never access the Digital Banking Services or Digital Wallet from any public or untrusted Device;

never access the Digital Banking Services or the Digital Wallet in such a way that third parties would be able to see, access or obtain your Security Details;

keep your Security Details secret. Never disclose your Security Details to any other person or record your Security Details in a manner that may result in them becoming known to someone else. For example, do not utilise any “save Security Details” facility on your internet browser or Device whereby your Security Details are automatically saved for future use and we also recommend using a different PIN to access the Digital Banking Services or Device to that you use for your Card;

never leave your Device unattended whilst using the Digital Banking Services or the Digital Wallet, or use your Device or the Digital Banking Services in a place where people can see your screen or your Account Information. Close the relevant Digital Banking Service and Digital Wallet if you are not using it;

not install or use the Digital Banking Services or the Digital Wallet on a Device which has had any security features or restrictions imposed by the manufacturer modified or removed. When this happens, security protection is taken away and it may mean that fraudsters could access your Device and steal your information or money;

uninstall the Application or Applications from your Device if you change your Device or dispose of it;

keep the Device you use the Digital Banking Services or Digital Wallet on secure (please refer to terms 3.7.5 and 6.4.2);

always treat emails you receive from senders claiming to be from us with caution and be wary of emails or calls asking you for any personal Security Details. We (or the police) will never contact you to ask you for your online banking or Card PINs, or your Security Details information;

always access the Online Banking Service by typing the Website address into your web browser. Never access the Website from a link in an email and then enter personal details;

Third Party Providers

If you are registered for our Online Banking Service you can choose to use a Third Party Provider:

to make payments from your Account on your behalf (Third Party Providers who provide these services are known as Payment Initiation Service Providers);

to provide account information services to you (Third Party Providers who provide these services are known as Account Information Service Providers).

We can only accept instructions or provide information to a Third Party Provider if they are:

authorised or regulated by the FCA or an EEA regulator to act as a Payment Initiation Service Provider or Account Information Service Provider; and

open and transparent about their identity.

Before you instruct a Third Party Provider you should check that they are appropriately authorised or regulated by the FCA or an EEA regulator.

If you have opted for “view only” access to our Online Banking Service you may only use an Account Information Service Provider.

If you have a joint Account, each Account holder is entitled to consent to a Third Party Provider accessing information in respect of your Account and making payments from your Account, and each can revoke any ongoing consent granted to a Third Party Provider to access your Account. This means that where one person revokes access to the Third Party Provider this will impact all joint Account holders.

These Terms require you to keep your Security Details confidential and you must not share them with anybody else, even with a Third Party Provider.

We make available to a Third Party Provider a specific means of accessing your Account. If it tries to access your Account by a different way, we may refuse to allow that access. This includes where a Third Party Provider uses your Security Details.

We are required to treat any Payment Instruction from a Third Party Provider which is a Payment Initiation Service Provider as if it was made directly by you, and the Banking Terms & Conditions will apply to the subsequent Payment Transaction. You must tell us about any unauthorised or incorrectly authorised Payment Transactions even where you use a Third Party Provider.

If you consent to a Third Party Provider having access to information concerning your Account, we will assume that you consent to access being granted as frequently as the Third Party Provider requests it.

Please note that in certain situations, we are not responsible to you if a Third Party Provider breaches their obligations to you. For example, if you consent to a Third Party Provider having access to your Account information, we will not be liable if the Third Party Provider fails to keep this information safe.

We may limit the Third Party Provider’s access in accordance with regulatory requirements. We may stop a Third Party Provider from accessing your Account or refuse to accept a Payment Instruction from a Third Party Provider if we suspect they are attempting unauthorised or fraudulent access to your Account. We will tell you about this by telephoning you or using any of the contact details we hold for you unless this would compromise our reasonable security measures or would be unlawful.

If you want to cancel the consent you have given to a Third Party Provider to access your Account you can either contact them directly or notify us, using the Online Banking Service or by contacting your Banker. Once a Third Party Provider has initiated a Payment Transaction, you cannot normally cancel it. You can cancel certain types of Payment Transaction which are to be made on a future date. Please refer to the Banking Terms & Conditions for further information on Payment Transaction cut-off times.
