We’re having a Virgin Money makeover

We’ve been working hard to bring Yorkshire Bank and Virgin Money together to give our website and digital services the full Virgin Money treatment. You’ll soon be able to view and manage your account(s) using the Virgin Money Internet Banking service.

There’s nothing you need to do – we’ll take care of it all. Your account and login details will remain the same and you’ll still be able to login using the link on the Yorkshire Bank website.

We’ll be back in touch when the new service is ready to use. If you need to contact us, you can still get in touch using the normal contact information.
