Our basic bank account
The Cash account offers the essentials you need for everyday banking. It is an account for people who don't hold another UK bank account and don't qualify for our other current accounts.
You can make payments, withdraw cash and set up regular payments like Direct Debits and standing orders. However, you can’t apply for an overdraft or use a chequebook.
Supporting access to cash
We partner with LINK and Cash Access UK to ensure our customers can easily access their cash.

How do I switch to a TSB bank account?
We guarantee switching your bank account to us will only take seven working days.
It’s easy as 1-2-3.
Choose to switch to us when you apply, or any time after.
We will move all your incoming and outgoing payments into your new account.
In the unlikely event there are any hiccups, we'll refund any interest and charges on your old or new current accounts.
Bank Account FAQs
You can make almost any of our current accounts into a joint account, either by opening a new account or by adding someone to your existing one. The only accounts we have that can't be joint are our Under 19s, Student, and Graduate accounts. You also can't add someone to a Cash account if they already have a TSB account.
Using the Current Account Switch Service (CASS) online you can switch a current account from another provider to us. Not all banks are participants of CASS. You can check if your current provider is a CASS participant before applying to switch to us here.
If you want to switch from a provider who isn’t a CASS participant or want to switch a savings account, we can still organise the switch for you but it can take a little longer. Applications to do this are available in a TSB branch. We recommend you book an appointment before visiting the branch. Please call our Telephone Banking team on 0345 975 8758 to book an appointment.
You can switch your joint Current Account from your old bank in to TSB providing that your new TSB Current Account is also a joint account. You can also switch your sole account into a joint account, however you can’t switch a joint account into a sole account.
We may be able to provide facilities to pay off any existing overdraft you may have, subject to our normal lending criteria. If you agree an overdraft limit with us it may not match that offered by your old bank. If you do not come to an agreement with us you will need to make separate arrangements to repay any balance owed with your old bank.
Please be aware your old bank is entitled to use any funds it receives in settlement of the debt on your old account.
Yes you can still use your old bank account up until day 6 of the switch. If you set up any new payment arrangements on your old bank during the switch these will not be transferred.
Your old bank will automatically close as part of the 7 day switching process. This ensures payments made to your old account can be redirected to your new account. If your old account is overdrawn or has pending transactions on the day the switch completes the account will stay open until the balance reaches zero.
If you want to keep your old account open you will need to do a partial switch. This can only be done in a TSB branch and will take longer than 7 working days. We recommend you book an appointment before visiting the branch. Please call our Telephone Banking team on 0345 975 8758 to book an appointment.
To cancel the switch completely, you need to let your new bank know at least 7 working days before your switch date. After that, only certain elements can be cancelled depending how far through the process we are.
As part of the 7 day switch there is a redirection on your old bank account. This means credits to your old bank will be forwarded to your new bank within 24 hours. This includes debit card refunds however these can take a little longer. If you receive a credit after 3pm Friday, weekends or bank holidays these will be forwarded the next working day.
