We are happy to discuss your daily business banking activities without charge. However, if we spend a significant amount of time on a specific area, we may charge a fee. In all cases this will be agreed with you first.
We like to keep you up to date with any charges we receive from other banks. For example, they sometimes charge us when you use their counter services. In turn, we may pass these costs on to you and your branch will be able to tell you which banks charge and why. Inter-Bank Agency Agreements are arrangements between banks to provide a range of branch counter services to another bank’s customers by prior arrangement. This can provide a convenient service to business customers who find the accessibility of their own bank’s branches difficult – for example, due to location.
For business customers of Lloyds Bank
The range and type of counter services offered under an Inter-Bank Agency Agreement is at the discretion of the providing bank.
Counter services available at our branches include:
For business customers of other banks wishing to use one of our branches
Once the Inter-Bank Agency Agreement service is set up, we will claim back charges from your own bank on a quarterly basis. The additional charge, if any, made by the account-holding branch is negotiated with that bank’s customer.
We strive to provide you with as many services as possible – yet there may be local circumstances where we are unable to provide them.
Some charges may not be included in your pre-notification. If this is the case, we’ll call or write to tell you how much the service will cost, before we provide it.
If your business imports or exports goods and services, we have a range of international services to support your business.
You can find more information in our international services tariff, or talk to your Business Management Team.
