You can now arrange to have funds collected automatically from your UK bank or building society account by using our Direct Deposit Service.

Many customers send us cheques drawn on their UK bank or building society account for credit to their Nationwide International savings account. Mailed cheques, especially those posted from overseas, can take some time to reach us before they are then presented through the clearing system.

However, providing you hold a UK based sterling current account (with any bank or building society) you can transfer funds from that account directly into your Nationwide International savings account, without the delays of issuing a cheque or the cost of arranging an electronic transfer.  As this service is part of the UK Direct Debit Scheme all payments are covered by the Direct Debit Guarantee. Details of the Direct Debit Guarantee are attached to the Direct Debit Instruction form.
