| FSCS – Protecting Your Money |

Accounts held in the UK
The FSCS will protect you up to £120,000 of your eligible deposits in the unlikely event that something happens to TBUK. For example, if you only hold £80,000 in a savings account and £50,000 in a current account with TBUK, the FSCS would protect £120,000 in total.
Joint Accounts
For Joint Accounts, each eligible account holder is entitled to £120,000 protection in total. For example, if there are two account holders, you will each be entitled to £120,000 protection, giving a total of £240,000.
Business Accounts
For Business Accounts, eligible deposits held in business accounts are treated as belonging to a single depositor and are protected up to £120,000 in total.
Temporary High Balances
You may be entitled to protection above £120,000 (up to £1.4m) for six months from when the amount was first deposited or legally transferred. Temporarily high balance are deposits connected with certain events, including:
- Buying or selling your main home
- Major life events such as death, marriage, divorce, retirement, redundancy, disability or incapacity
- Compensation for personal injury or wrongful convictio
Who Is Eligible
FSCS protection generally applies to deposits held by individuals and most businesses. Certain exclusions apply, including deposits held by financial institutions and some public authorities.
