Important information
- You can find your Family Building Society account number on your Savings Account Certificate when you originally opened your account. Alternatively, if you're registered for our Online Service, your account number will be shown on the main screen after you've logged in.
- You may be asked by your provider what type of payee you would like to set up. Please select ‘business account’. This has no impact on your account with us.

Payments into my account
Any transactions you make outside of our Online Service, such as a bank transfer or faster payment into your account, may not be shown in the Online Service until 2 working days after the transaction is paid into your account.
Confirmation of Payee
Your bank / building society may let you know that the account name you use doesn’t match what’s on their system. This is because Family Building Society is a trading name of National Counties, and our account name is ‘National Counties’. However, your bank will still let you carry on with the payment.
Savings account charges
During the life of your savings account with us there are some charges which may be incurred.
Service | Fee |
Cheque paid in and later returned unpaid | £15 |
Same day transfer of funds to your bank account (via CHAPS, telegraphic transfers) | £25 |
