Current Account Switching Service

Automated, hassle-free current account switch service

Our customers are increasingly using PFS current accounts as their main financial solution. To make this even easier, PFS can manage the entire current account switch service. This includes transferring any regular payments such as Direct Debits and standing orders from a bank or building society directly to a PFS issued account. PFS was the first non-bank participant to provide a partial version of the service, working directly with Bacs.

• We arrange for the transfer of these direct debits, standing orders and bill payments from the old bank or building society
• The old account remains open
• It takes around 10 days start to finish
