My bank has a limitation on what to put within the bank transfer.
I can only put:
BANK NAME
BANK ADDRESS
BENEFICIARY NAME
IBAN
BIC
CURRENCY
It is lacking input info ACCOUNT NUMBER and SORT CODE. Is it also missing āReference codeā input info, it only appears āSent Noteā. Could Sent Note be okay as Reference code?
If lacks ACCOUNT NUMBER and SORT CODE will the transfer be valid?
My bank also lacks the āaccount numberā and āsort codeā fields, donāt worry about it. Just fill the fields your bank allows. In theory, they only need the IBAN
The reference code is important, as this is how T212 knows to deposit the money into your account. In my bank, the field is called āoriginatorās referenceā, different banks call it differently. On Revolut for instance, they also call it ānoteā. Put your reference code there. I believe this should work for you just fine.
Thatās correct - any information about the account will be useful. Therefore, adding your account ID in the āNotesā section also will be helpful.
On a side note - if you deposit through a joint bank account, you will need to provide us with a bank statement.
Iāve recently opened up a T212 account and bank transferred Ā£100 to my account but didnāt give the correct reference number for the transfer. Do I need to take any further steps to make sure the money reaches my account or is it not that important? Thanks!
Hi Tony, similar concern for me. I would like to transfer an amount from my bank in the Netherlands, however, there is no field for me to enter my Trading 212 account number. There is a description field, but as far as i am aware, that is for me only and not visible to you. Therefore you would receive anonymous money with no idea what account it is for. Iām not sure what the daily limit is on my debit card, but donāt really want to be making multiple transactions potentially over several days. Any help appreciated
There is a simple solution in such cases - reach out our team using the in-app contact form (or send us an email to info@trading212.com), attach the transfer receipt, and weāll be able to trace faster the funds.
