On the payments screen the Monzo app has some lovely little icons showing which bank the account details are related to… Except when they don’t.
Let’s use this wiki to crowdsource the banks that are missing or wrong:
Missing
- Atom (04-40-01)
- Bank of Ireland (sort code ranges: 90-xx-xx and 94-xx-xx, e.g. 90-20-71)
- Chase (60-84-07)
- Danske Bank (sort code ranges: 91-xx-xx and 95-xx-xx)
- Marcus (sort code: 40-64-37)
- Nottingham Building Society (sort code: 60-95-93)
- NS&I (sort code: 08-31-05)
- Revolut (sort code: 04-00-75)
- Triodos (sort code: 16-58-10)
- Virgin Money (sort code ranges: 04-00-79, 04-00-80, 08-60-64, 05-xx-xx, 82-xx-xx)
- Ulster Bank (sort code range: 98-xx-xx, main branch: 98-00-60)
- Unity Trust Bank (sort code: 60-83-01)
- Wirex (sort code: 60-83-84)
- Zopa (60-84-00)
- Cashplus (08-71-99)
- Post Office Money Savings (90-78-68 - savings, provided by Bank of Ireland UK, but sort code unique to Post Office so should use their logo)
- Kroo Bank (04-07-09)
- Hampshire Trust Bank (23-62-47)
- Tred (04-06-80)
Potentially confusing - may be better to use a generic logo
- Lloyds Banking Group credit card payments (sort code: 77-29-00) - shows the Lloyds Bank logo.
Confusing as this sort code is actually a Lloyds Bank sort code but is shared as a collection account for all credit card payments with Lloyds Bank, Halifax, Bank of Scotland & MBNA - Principality Building Society (20-18-23) - shows as Barclays. This might be the correspondent bank for the building society but if the logo can’t be corrected it might be better not to have one to avoid confusion.
- Charity Bank (60-21-28) - shows as NatWest. Appears to be used as a correspondent bank.
- Gatehouse Bank (20-32-53) - shows as Barclays. Appears to be used as a correspondent bank.
Wrong - logo needs changing/adding
- First Direct (sort code range: 40-47-58 to 40-47-87) - shows HSBC logo. Shares the HSBC banking licence but confusing / incorrect.
- M&S Bank (sort code range: 40-12-54 to 40-12-57 and 23-56-14) - shows HSBC logo. Legally separate to HSBC’s banking licence but part of the HSBC Group - the logo is confusing / incorrect.
- Smile (sort code range: 08-92-86 to 08-92-89) - shows as the Cooperative Bank. Shares the parent bank’s banking licence, but as with First Direct the branding is separate.
