Yes. You’ll need your debit card or details of the account you wish to switch from, income details, your home address and the details of any arranged overdraft you have on your existing bank account.
You can switch both sole accounts and joint accounts into a joint account. Ensure your new account is in joint names before completing your switch.
You can’t switch a joint account into a sole account until the second party has been removed from the account.
