Cater Allen Private Bank

Mine seemed to be loading okay - sometimes the website has gone blank for me when my session has timed out, and I need to log in again - so might be worth trying logging out and back in if you haven’t already.

I actually quite enjoy Cater Allen - whenever I need to contact them, they’re helpful and quick. And I really like that the online banking is plain and not trying to sell me new products like some other banks.

If Santander were to leave the UK - I wonder whether Cater Allen would be treated any differently?

Cater Allen Limited itself is a separate company to Santander UK plc and has a different banking license. That said, it has no employees as everyone is employed by Santander UK plc.

Does anyone know whether this is still a thing?

I can’t see Cater Allen in the list on the Santander app or am I missing something?

Would I be right in saying that you wouldn’t see your own salary for instance until a day later then?

I use open banking in Lloyds to view my Cater Allen GBP / Euro balances as some providers (inc Santander) have a limited choice. Be aware you won’t see any live changes as they take a day or two at least to update transactions.

An interesting observation

The cater Allen universal sort code is a mere one digit different to that of Triodos

16-57-10 Vs 16-58-10

Quite surprised it’s not a former Abbey National sort code (09).

Never noticed that before!

Theres something higher in this thread which implies Cater Allen worked off of RBS systems before Santander entered the UK.

Cool stuff!

The 16 sort code will have come from its RBS days.

I want to hear some feedback about using it for day to day banking

Surely a salary payment doesn’t show a day delayed?

I can confirm that a salary payment took a while to come in.
