Account alerts


Using your account

Free updates, straight to your mobile phone


Can you afford that weekend away? That big night out? Or that pile of course books? With free text alerts you’re always in the know.

Stay on top of your finances

  • Balance alerts – once a week, we'll text your account balance to your phone. Simply pick the day and we’ll do the rest. The text shows your balance from the previous day.
  • Limit alerts – what if your account is low on funds? Or a relative sends you some money? Just set upper and lower limits, and we’ll send a text when your account hits those amounts.
