Do I need to provide any identification or account information to request my statement (transaction history list) in branch?

Yes, you will need to provide the sort code and account number of the closed current account. Without this it may take longer to process your request.

You'll also need to provide the usual proof of identity(opens in a new window) and proof of address(opens in a new window).

How long after closing my account can I contact the bank and request my statement (transaction history list)?

You can request your transaction history up to five years after closing your account.

How many years worth of history can I request?

You can specify the date range of transactions you'd like to see over the last five years. So if you make the request four years after your account is closed, you'll be able to get the account transactions you made in the last year that your account was open.

As your transaction history will be printed, please specify the exact time period you need. This will help to save paper.

How will I receive my transaction history?

It will be sent via post to the address on the account or the address you specify in the fax (if you are, or were a relationship managed business customer) or letter.

How long will it take to receive my transaction history?

We will send your statement (transaction history list) within 5 working days of successfully passing identification checks.

Can I request the transaction history in a particular format?

Yes, you can request it in large text print, braille and audio options.

Will it cost me anything to request this transaction history?

The transaction history list is free. There will be a charge for copy statements.

The difference between a transaction history list and a copy statement is that a transaction history list will show both cleared and uncleared transactions, such as cheques. Copy statements will only show cleared transactions.
