Timing: From 1 September 2007
- On 1 September 2007 Standard Life will transfer their banking business to HSBC.
- Any payments made to Standard Life on or after 1 September 2007 by direct credit, BACS, CHAPS or telegraphic transfer must be paid into their new account. Details are: Name of account: The 'new' Standing Order Collections a/c Sort Code: 40-03-28: Account number: 22288192
- Standard Life will transfer existing payment details for those members paying by direct debit or standing order to the new bank account, so you do not need to take any action.
