How to switch to Allica Bank

Switching payments to your Allica account is easy. Once you've given us details of your old account, we'll contact your bank for details of your standing orders, Direct Debits and payees. Once we have them, you can log in to your Allica account and choose which payments you'd like to switch.

When requesting a partial switch of payments, there are two stages:

 

Stage 1:  request to switch online or with our app

We'll need your old account details (sort code and account number), the last five digits of your debit card number (if you have one), and details of account signatories (full name and date of birth). When you’re ready to switch:
