Move Money Out lets you pay people or bills in the UK and abroad. If you've moved money to someone before, it's easy to do it again, and if you’re looking to pay someone new then all you’ll need to know is their name, sort code and account number. You can also add a reference so both of you know what the payment is for.
You can also amend or delete Standing Orders and one-off Payments to move money in to your account.
To set upper and/or lower balance alerts log in to Online Banking and select Manage account from the Online Banking Overview.
Select Manage alerts from the Your alerts section on the Account Overview. Ensure your contact details are up to date and, if you have more than one account, choose the account you want to update from the drop-down menu, then Manage alerts.

A Tesco Bank overdraft gives you access to a little extra cash when you need it. You can apply when you open your current account, or later in Online Banking if you prefer. Either way, we'll give you a decision straight away.
Log in to Online Banking and select Manage account from the Online Banking Overview. Select Apply for an overdraft from Your account preferences and enter the overdraft amount you'd like to apply for, then choose Submit.
We'll let you know the amount of the arranged overdraft we'll offer you. (Please note that this may be less than the amount you applied for).
If you want to accept the overdraft offer, read and confirm you've read the important information, then choose Submit.
You have the flexibility to change your overdraft limit. To change your overdraft limit, select Your account preferences within Manage arranged overdraft. Enter the new overdraft amount you want to change to, then choose Submit.
The Current Account Switch Service makes it simple to move from your existing bank. You can request a switch using Online Banking once your debit card is activated, and it takes just seven days - guaranteed.
To switch after your account is open, log in to Online Banking and select Manage account on the Online Banking Overview. Select current account, or the account nickname, above the account number and sort code on the Account Overview. Select Switch an account from Your account preferences.
Enter the details for your old current account, then Continue.
Read both the Current Account Switch Agreement and the Account closure terms and conditions, check the boxes to confirm you agree to these and then choose Continue.
Check and Confirm the switch details are correct.
