Overview Switching
 
Switching to a Standard Bank personal current account has never been easier. Giving you more time to do the things you'd rather be doing.

Open a Standard Bank current account and speak to one of our consultants who will arrange to move your debit orders to your new Standard Bank account.

Reasons to switch
  • Get pricing flexibility by choosing from three pricing options.
  • Get extra cash by increasing your overdraft at an Auto Plus, through Internet banking or over the telephone
Pricing options that give you the best value

To make sure you get the best value out of your banking you can choose from three pricing options.
  • Plus option - has a set monthly management fee to avoid surprises at the end of the month.
  • Refund option - maintain a minimum positive balance for a full calendar month and we'll refund certain service fees, including AutoBank cash withdrawals, cheque payments, cheque card purchases, inter-account transfers, account payments, debit orders and the minimum service fee.
  • Pay as you transact - only pay for the transactions you make.
How to get more

When you open your account, we will let you know immediately whether you are eligible for credit card, overdraft and personal loan. Should you decide that you don't want these benefits when you open your account, you can apply for them at any time through your branch.

You can also apply for an overdraft or to increase your limit at any AutoPlus machine, through Internet banking or over the phone. To do this, you will need to have had your account for at least six months.
