Deposits and Withdrawals

The withdrawals and deposits you can make on your account are dependent upon the Terms and Conditions of that account, which you should always check first. If you have any queries please contact us on 08458 501722*.

Withdrawals

Dependent upon your account Terms and Conditions, you can make a withdrawal against cleared funds from one of our branches, by post, through our branch network, via our Principal Office. Certain account types allow withdrawals by telephone or online where your account conditions permit.

The maximum amount you can withdraw on demand from a branch per day on each account is £250 in cash and £100,000 by cheque. For withdrawals of over £100,000 a cheque will be sent to you by post from our Principal Office in Skipton.

Withdrawals against cheques paid into your account can be made on the seventh working day from and including the day on which the cheque is paid in (if this is a working day). For example, a cheque paid in on a Monday will normally be available for withdrawal on the Tuesday of the following week.

Withdrawals against debit card payments can be made on the third working day from and including the day on which the payment was made into your account (if this is a working day). For example, a debit card payment made on a Monday will normally be available for withdrawal on the Wednesday of the same week.

Withdrawals against electronic payments, including CHAPS payments can be made immediately upon receipt.

Request a withdrawal slip to be forwarded by post.
