How to reduce cheque fraud

The following guidance is intended to help ensure that your account continues to operate safely, and to help to reduce the potential for cheque fraud.

If you are making a cheque payment to your account, please do not make the cheque payable simply to 'Skipton Building Society'. The cheque should be payable to the account holder and include Skipton account number, if possible.

You should draw a line through any unused space on the cheque so that unauthorised people cannot add extra numbers or names. If the cheque is from another person or institution then you should ask for any future cheques to have your name and/or account number on it.
