3 months 0% interest free overdraft when you switch
An arranged overdraft can act as a useful safety net. You can use it to borrow money up to an agreed limit through your bank account.
What happens after the 0% interest free period ends?
Once your three month interest-free period ends we will charge interest daily. The daily arranged overdraft interest rate will be based on how you manage any accounts with us and on the credit information we hold about you. We will let you know this rate in the pre contract credit information we give you if you apply for an arranged overdraft.
Representative example (based on using a Club Lloyds Account)
An arranged overdraft on a Club Lloyds account has a variable interest rate of 27.5% EAR, and a variable representative rate of 29.9% APR, based on borrowing £1,200. The APR includes monthly maintaining the account fees of £3* and an interest free amount of £50.
*The £3 fee is waived for each month you pay in at least £1,500 into your account. From 1 April 2023 you’ll need to pay in £2,000 or more.
How does our overdraft compare?
You can use the representative APR to compare with other products or credit providers, this can help you make sure that you choose the right type of borrowing for you.
How much does my overdraft cost in pounds and pence?
As an example, the interest cost of borrowing £500 is: £2.04 for 7 days, £8.94 for 30 days and £17.98 for 60 days.
Arranged overdrafts are subject to application and approval and repayable on demand. You must be 18 or over to apply. Arranged overdraft limits and interest rates vary based on your individual circumstances.
