TSB to give notice of charges
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.TSB plans to give customers advance warning of charges to be deducted from their accounts. The new system will be introduced in November. Customers will be sent a statement at least 14 days before charges are deducted, saying what they are, when they were incurred, and when they will be deducted. This will give customers the chance to raise any queries.
TSB is the first bank to offer this service, taking up recommendations by the Consumers' Association.
Both the Co-op and Lloyds banks are planning to introduce advance notification for small business account holders, but not for personal account customers. National Westminster Bank intends to introduce advance notification for small business customers early in 1993 and says that it is reviewing the situation for personal customers.
