LLOYDS BANK CURRENT ACCOUNT
Club Lloyds
Variable credit interest and more great benefits with our Club Lloyds current account.
Arranged overdraft
An arranged overdraft can act as a short term safety net. You can use it to borrow money up to an agreed limit through your bank account.
- Setting up an arranged overdraft is free and you’ll only pay daily arranged overdraft interest if you use more than the interest-free amount of £50.
- If you use your arranged overdraft but pay it back before the end of the day, then you won’t pay any arranged overdraft interest for that day.
- Applying for an arranged overdraft - When you have applied for this account, at the end of the application you can apply for an arranged overdraft which you can add right away. You can also apply for one later. All overdrafts are subject to application and repayable on demand. You must be 18 or over to apply.
- Amending an arranged overdraft - You can reduce or remove your arranged overdraft at any time through Mobile Banking, Internet Banking or Telephone Banking or by visiting your branch. But you must repay anything you owe if you want to remove an arranged overdraft or anything over the new reduced limit you want. You can also apply to increase it. This application won't affect your credit score.
- Helpful tools - You can use our eligibility checker and cost calculator to check your eligibility and calculate the cost of an arranged overdraft.
- Unarranged overdraft - If you don't have enough money in your account or available arranged overdraft to make a payment, we may either let you borrow through an unarranged overdraft or refuse to make the payment. Missing payments and using an unarranged overdraft can damage your credit score, please get in touch with us as we may be able to help you.
Applying for this product does not improve your eligibility for an arranged overdraft. All overdrafts are subject to our assessment of your circumstances and are repayable on demand.

You just need to pay out two different Direct Debits from your Club Lloyds account each calendar month. Interest is variable, worked out daily and paid monthly.
For example, when you have £4,500 in your account, you could earn interest of 1.00% AER (0.99% annual gross) on the first £3,999.99 and 2.00% (1.98% annual gross) on the rest.
Please note interest paid before 6th April 2016 will have been paid net (unless you registered the account with us to receive gross interest) . Net is the rate of interest payable after allowing for the deduction of income tax at the rate specified by law (currently 20%).
From 6th April 2016 interest is paid Gross, meaning we will not deduct tax on your behalf. Dependant on your personal circumstances, tax may be due on your interest and it is your responsibility to disclose and pay any tax due directly to HMRC.
What do I have to do to earn the credit interest?
You need to pay at least two separate Direct Debits from your Club Lloyds current account each calendar month.
Please note, qualifying Direct Debits must come out monthly, quarterly Direct Debits are not eligible. Also Standing Orders do not qualify.
Can I earn credit interest on balances over £5,000?
No, credit interest is not payable on the amount of any balance over £5,000.
When is the credit interest paid?
If you earn the credit interest, it will be paid into your Club Lloyds current account by the second working day of the following calendar month.
If you do not earn the credit interest, you won't receive payment the following calendar month.
If I miss out on the credit interest one month, can I earn it the next month?
Yes, if in any month you miss out on the credit interest, you can still earn it in future months. Just make sure you pay out two separate Direct Debits in the next calendar month.
Do I have to pay out two separate Direct Debits each month?
No, there is no requirement on this account to pay out two separate Direct Debits each month. You only have to pay out two separate Direct Debits each month if you want to earn the credit interest on balances between £1 - £5,000.
