Premier Reward

Your financial goals, our expertise

• With Premier you'll have an expert team available to help with your everyday banking needs, day or night. If you need help with something more complex, we can connect you with the specialists you may need.

Protect what matters

• If you need it, you'll also have access to an enhanced level of insurance cover available with Premier Insurance (underwritten by U K Insurance Limited).

You could earn up to £10 a month in Rewards (that’s up to £120 a year) plus rewards when you spent with our retail partners. See the monthly break down below.

As well as earning Rewards for having 2 Direct Debits at least £4.50 each (like your phone bill), you can earn even more Rewards at our partner retailers, like Caffe Nero, Morrisons or Sky. You can earn between 1-15% back on your purchases. 

Your Rewards balance can grow quickly, they're easy to earn and easy to exchange. Once you reach £5 in Rewards, you can redeem it as cash back into your bank account, donate it or trade it up.

Normally 1.00 in Rewards = £1, but trade up with partner retailers like Cineworld, Argos, or even Avios to get even more for your Rewards. You can also donate them to our selected charities.

This account offers an overdraft facility (subject to eligibility). You can check if you're likely to be accepted for an overdraft using our eligibility tool.

There are two different types of overdraft:

• An arranged overdraft, which allows you to go overdrawn up to an agreed limit. This is the type of overdraft you could apply for here
• An unarranged overdraft. This is when you spend more money than you have in your current account without already having an arranged overdraft, or when you exceed your current arranged overdraft limit

We charge interest on both types of overdraft. Going in to an unarranged overdraft limit can lead to payments being rejected. 

How much does my overdraft cost in pounds and pence?

As an example, the interest cost of using a £500 arranged overdraft is: 

This is a specific illustrative example representing the interest cost of using a £500 arranged overdraft over periods of 7, 30 and 60 days.

Looking to understand the costs of an overdraft of more or less than £500 over different periods of time? Use our handy cost calculator.

How does our overdraft compare?

A good way to compare the costs of an overdraft is by using the APR, which shows the cost of borrowing over a year.

Representative Example: Effective Annual Rate: 39.49% EAR (variable). Representative APR: 39.49% APR (variable). Assumed credit limit: £1,200.
