Current account
A key element of our service is the interest bearing
current account. This combines a wide range of practical features
together with the option of multi-currency accounts.
For any of the world's three leading currencies you have easy
access to your money through the Visa network allowing you to
withdraw £1,000 in cash daily from a Visa ATM, subject to any
lesser local limits being imposed, or £2,000 over the counter where
the Visa logo is displayed, and acts as a £250 cheque
guarantee card in the British Isles. For Focus personal
accountholders, you automatically qualify for a gold status Visa
card.
A choice of currencies
You can maintain your account in any major currency and take
advantage of commission-free foreign exchange dealing. This service
allows you to buy and sell in all major currencies, with no minimum
or maximum size of deal.
Direct debits and standing orders
Sterling accounts can have standing orders and direct debits set
up within the British Isles. So, even if you are abroad, you can
rest assured all your regular bills will be paid promptly.
Competitive interest rates
The account pays a competitive rate of interest, which is
calculated daily and credited to the account on a monthly
basis as long as your cash balance is over the minimum £5,000. Our
interest rates are available to view
online.
