All Authorised Individuals will be able to see all payment transactions made on the Business Current Account and access all other features of the App in relation to the Business Current Account and this may include seeing the full support history on the Business Current Account for all Authorised Individuals.

The company is sold or transferred in any situation that there is a significant change in any position of Significant Control of the company, you must immediately make notifications to us which confirm that the change has occurred.

We require any new present of Significant Control in the Company that has been undertaken to our standard identification and verification procedures (“ID&V Procedures via Identify”).

If an approved decision is made, it is noticeable that depending on the case, Fees will be applied in conjunction with the opening account process (up to 500 EUR/GBP/CHF/CAD (or 4,125 HKD) (depending on which currency you choose and register for your account)).

Disputes

If you inform us or we become aware of a dispute within the Company or between the Persons of Significant Control of the Company, we will go through the following process:

  1. We will place a restriction on the Business Current Account to state that we will only take written instructions from all Authorised Individuals of the Company in respect of the Business Current Account (this means we will not process payment instructions from the Business Current Account unless authorised to do so by all the Authorised Individuals of the Company); and
  2. We will only remove the restriction when all the Authorised Individuals have confirmed in writing that the dispute has been resolved.

It is your responsibility to inform us if there is any such dispute.

Following notification of a dispute, we will continue to allow existing direct debit mandates unless all the Authorised Individuals confirm in writing otherwise.
