We’ll convert the payment received into pounds on the day we pay it into your account. We use our standard exchange rate for money received from outside the UK or in a foreign currency.
Payments may pass through an agent bank to reach Lloyds Bank. The agent bank might charge for their service, and that fee will be deducted from the payment sent. This reduces the payment Lloyds Bank receives, so you'll also get paid less.
Payments are processed using our standard exchange rate and we’ll only change your payment into pounds when we receive it. Until then the exchange rate is indicative, for information only and can change at any time.
To get an indication of the exchange rate you may receive, you can phone us on 0345 300 0000, 8am – 8pm, seven days a week. Not all Telephone Banking services are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Or call into your local branch.
Our standard exchange rate includes a margin. The following table provides an indication of the current margin. This is the difference between our standard exchange rate and the wholesale rate at which we buy and sell currency in the foreign exchange markets.
If you hold a Mayfair Private Banking Service account, you may receive a different standard exchange rate and margin. Please contact your Private Bank Manager for more details.

A person in the United States makes a payment of $1,000 to your account. If the current GBP/USD wholesale rate is 1.2600 , the Lloyds Bank standard exchange rate applied to the incoming payment would be 1.3047, based on our current margin of 3.55%.
In this example, if we receive $1,000 this means you’ll receive £759.44 in your account after we charge our £7 fee.
Please note: We use a live wholesale rate to calculate the standard exchange rate. Together with the percentages outlined previously, the information is indicative, for information only and can change at any time.
Payments sent in euros from a bank within the EEA should be in your account by the end of the following working day.
We can't control when we'll receive payments not in euros or from outside of the EEA. This depends on when and how the sending bank sends the payment to us. When we do receive it, we'll convert it into pounds, take our fee and then pay the money into your account as soon as possible.
Please contact the sender of the money and ask them to contact the bank sending the money. They can trace the payment.
If you want to pay in a foreign currency cheque, sign your name on the back of the cheque and call in to branch. We generally try to “negotiate” a cheque. If we can’t do that or you ask us, we can “collect” it.
We may not be able to accept cheques in all foreign currencies.
Negotiating: We'll usually pay the money into your account by the sixth working day after we receive it. We’ll convert it into pounds using our standard exchange rate for this payment.
Collecting: We'll pay the money into your account when we receive payment from the paying bank. The time this takes can vary depending on the paying bank or its country. We send the cheque to them and we may use an agent to do this. When we receive payment, we’ll convert it into pounds using our standard exchange rate for this payment.
To get help or ask questions about the standard exchange rates, you can visit one of our branches or call us on 0345 300 0000. 8am – 8pm, seven days a week. Not all Telephone Banking services are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
