A key element of our mission and values is to protect and promote human dignity for all. That includes our responsibilities to our own co-workers. We expect all customers, applicants, enquirers, and others to treat our teams with respect at all times. We want to make it clear that we do not tolerate inappropriate behaviour towards our co-workers or while using our services. For example, behaving in a threatening or abusive or offensive or intimidating/harassing manner to our co-workers; or using abusive or offensive language in payment instructions or in any contact with us. If ever our co-workers experience such behaviour, they are authorised to terminate communication via the contact channel being used. Where appropriate, we may also then look to withdraw/restrict/suspend our services; and/or to close the account(s) of the customer involved; and/or to report such incidents to the Police or others.

Yes. You can transfer an existing cash ISA to your Triodos cash ISA. If you don't already have a Triodos cash ISA, you will need to open one first. Explore our range of ethical ISAs to find the right one for you, then apply via the Triodos Mobile Banking App.
To request the transfer, you’ll need to download and complete the relevant form below. The forms are interactive so you can fill out your details online, but you’ll need to print the form and sign it using a pen before returning to 'Freepost TRIODOS BANK'. Alternatively, you can submit your signed and completed form via the chat function in the Triodos App.
We’ll transfer your money directly between your ISAs and protect your tax-free ISA status. Do not move your money out of an ISA yourself, because your money will lose this ISA status.
The transfer process usually takes between 14-30 days. We’ll write to you when the transfer is complete.
If you are transferring to a new Fixed Rate ISA, please note that it can take up to 30 days to complete a transfer. We must receive your money from your existing provider within 60 days of the Fixed Rate ISA account opening date, so please make sure you start the transfer process as soon as possible.

When the child is under 16 only the Legal Representative on the Junior Cash ISA account can operate it. This is the person with parental responsibility for the child who opened the account.
From the age of 16 a child can choose to remove the Legal Representative from the account, or open a Junior Cash ISA themselves, and then they operate the account themselves.

The Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) is a UK body which gives you automatic protection up to £120,000 if your bank, building society, or credit union goes out of business.
Your eligible deposits with Triodos Bank UK are protected up to a total of £120,000 by the FSCS. An eligible deposit is money in accounts such as current and savings accounts, including cash ISAs. With Triodos, this will also cover cash held in investment accounts but not the investments themselves.
Please note that the £120,000 will apply to the total of all eligible deposits with Triodos Bank rather than per account or product. Any deposits over this amount are unlikely to be covered.
For more information, please visit the Triodos FSCS webpage.

A child can only hold one Junior cash ISA and one Junior stocks and shares ISA at any time and cannot hold a Junior ISA and a Child Trust Fund at the same time as a Junior ISA of any type. So if your child already holds a Junior ISA of the same type or a Child Trust Fund, it must be closed and transferred to the Triodos Junior ISA.
You can also choose to transfer funds between a Triodos Junior Cash ISA and a Juior Stocks and Shares ISA, or between Junior ISAs with other providers.

We'll write to you one month before your bond matures, asking you where you’d like your funds to go. If you have internet banking you will be able to make your choice online and can decide to either reinvest or transfer your matured funds to another account.
If we don’t hear from you before your bond matures, we’ll open a variable rate savings account on your behalf and write to let you know. There will always be opportunities for you to reinvest your money with Triodos, and we hope you choose to do so.

No. All money paid into a Junior Cash ISA is a gift to the child and cannot be returned or withdrawn.
Withdrawals are not permitted until the child is 18 years old, except in the event of death or terminal illness of the child. When the child turns 18 the account will automatically convert into an adult cash ISA in the child's name only. Then only the child will be able to access the money.
