Supporting customers with their financial wellbeing

We’re helping customers to build financial knowledge and empower them with the confidence they need to make the most of their money, both now and in the future.

Through our family of consumer brands, we support our customers in many ways:

Savings
options


We’ve been in touch with more than 15 million customers in the last year to inform them of their options for savings to show how they could benefit from changing their savings product to receive better rates.

Subscription
checker


More than 6 million unwanted third-party subscriptions have been directly cancelled or blocked through our mobile banking apps, since we launched the service in June 2021, to help with budgeting.

Your Credit
Score


More than 8.8 million customers have registered for Your Credit Score to help them understand their credit score and improve it, since its launch in September 2021.

Persistent
debt


We regularly write to repeat overdraft users and customers in persistent debt to help them understand how small changes to their repayment habits, such as fixing their monthly payments, can help them to pay down their balance quicker and save money on interest.

Access to
information


Making sure that our customers have easy access to information that will help them to make good decisions is important. We’ve lots of brand-new tools available in our Lloyds Bank, Bank of Scotland and Halifax apps as well as on our Money Worries and Money Management banking webpages such as the Support Tool and Budget Calculator.
