To qualify for the £200 switching offer (“the offer”) you must switch to a new Classic Plus or Premier Plus Account using the ‘Current Account Switch Service’ to switch from a bank account held with another bank.
Before you start your switch, please check that your current bank or building society takes part in the Current Account Switch Service. More on the Current Account Switch Service.

Yes, you must complete the switch request at the time of opening. The offer can be withdrawn without notice at any time. As part of your application, you will be asked if you want to switch before you select your new account, so have your existing account details to hand.
Your switch must include the transfer of at least 2 active direct debits from your old account. Direct debits set up after you’ve started your switch won’t count towards the offer. Standing orders and subscriptions are also excluded.
It’s a way to pay bills automatically from your current account. You give a business permission to collect money from your account when a payment is due. Direct debit amounts can vary, but the business has to tell you if the amount is changing. Direct debits are covered by the Direct Debit Guarantee.
An active direct debit is one that has been paid to the originator in the last 13 months. This can be any frequency of payment: weekly, monthly, quarterly or annual. If the direct debit has been recently set up and the first payment has not been taken this is not an active direct debit.
Joint accounts are not part of this offer. You can still apply for joint account by visiting one of our branches.
Whether you’re switching to Lloyds International or already bank with us and want to open another current account, it’s simple. We’ll move your direct debits and standing orders and make sure everything runs smoothly.
Although many things are switched automatically, we won’t:
Working day 1
We’ll contact your old account provider to start your switch.
Working day 2
We’ll confirm that your old account provider has received your request. We can then start moving your regular payments to your new Lloyds International current account.
Working day 3 to 5
It’ll take a couple of days to transfer all your regular payments, and make sure everything is ready for your switch.
Working day 6
If you choose to pay off the overdrawn balance on your old account as part of your switch, make sure there’s enough money in your new Lloyds account to cover this payment on the seventh working day of your switch.
Working day 7
We’ll transfer your balance and close your old account. Your switch is complete.
After your switch
Any payments sent to your old account will be automatically redirected to your new Lloyds International current account. We’ll also give the sender your new details for future payments.
