What banks can I not use with Bittylicious?
Any real bank is fine, and any bank that correctly sends the account name and the reference across is also fine. Some banks do not do this, and these must not be used with Bittylicious. The banks/payment services listed below cannot be used to buy from Bittylicious:
- APS Financial (their implementation of Faster Payments takes too long - typically 3-4 hours)
- Eccount (because they use BACS, not Faster Payments)
- My CashPlus
- thinkmoney (does not send payee data)
- CardOne (does not send payee data)
- Secure Trust (payments take 1+ days to send)
- One account (does not send payee data)
- Ffrees (payments take 1+ days to send and does not send payee data)
- Yorkshire Building Society (unreliable payee information)
- Clydesdale (unreliable payee information)
- Norwich and Peterborough Building Society (unreliable payee information)
You also must not use any intermediaries that convert between currencies, e.g. Transferwise. This is because we lose any information about the payee.
