Important update – we’re temporarily changing the way we work because of COVID-19. We’re focusing more on supporting vulnerable customers, key workers or those facing financial difficulties. With this in mind we are not able to operate our International Account Opening Service as normal and ask customers for their patience. We appreciate your understanding whilst we do our best to adapt our ways of working as the situation continues to evolve.
