The general conditions below apply to the clearing of funds by individual payment method.
All of the above are subject to individual account terms and conditions regarding interest, access and withdrawal.
It is your responsibility to notify us of a change of name, address or contact details. If you are changing your name, please present your passbook so we can update your details.
To change your personal details, we will need to be notified in writing (or online if you are registered for our Mansfield Online service). We will also ask you to provide evidence of your new name or address, in the form of original, certified or a copy of identification (ID). Please see You and Your Savings Account leaflet for a full list of acceptable ID. This can be found under Useful Downloads for Savers.
Clubs and businesses changing the signatories on their accounts will need to complete a Change of Mandate form which can be sent to you upon request, or is available in our branches. The club or business must also supply minutes from the meeting where the changes were discussed, as well as providing ID for any new signatory.
If at any point you wish to change the account holders on your account please use the Share Deposit Transfer form, which can be found under Useful Downloads for Savers. This can then be taken to one of our branches or sent through the post.
Whilst we endeavour to process all requests as soon as we receive them, please allow 3 working days for any requests to be actioned.
It’s really important that you let us know if your passbook has been lost or stolen as soon as possible. You can do this by calling us on 01623 676350, popping into a branch or emailing enquiries@mansfieldbs.co.uk.
Once you let us know your passbook has been lost or stolen, we’ll place a hold on your account to prevent any withdrawals – this is to protect you and your savings against possible fraud. Don’t worry though, any electronic or automatic deposits will still be accepted.
Our Branch Customer Advisors will guide you through the process to replace your passbook, which may include us asking for two forms of ID from you. We might also need to charge a fee of £10 to cover the cost of replacing your passbook. Once we’ve replaced your passbook we’ll take the hold off your account and you’ll be able to use it as normal.
If you are withdrawing from your account for the first time please bring your original passport or birth certificate (if you are under the age of 18). If you are sending ID through the post, it will be returned to you once we have made our own copy.
To make a withdrawal or close your account, we require signed instructions along with your passbook. This can be done in any of our branches, or through the post.
An electronic transfer to an account outside of the Society may be agreed as an exception, however a charge is applied. Please contact us on the number above to find out more, or if you are unsure of the terms and conditions relating to making a withdrawal/closure on your account.
