Pay your mortgage from another bank or building society

If you're paying us for the first time, you'll need to set up a new payee. You may be asked to confirm a few details about the account before you can make the payment.

  1. Choose personal account, when asked to select the account type.
  2. Enter your full first name and last name. So that's 'Thomas', not 'Tom'. For joint accounts, you'll only need to use the full name of one of the account holders.
  3. Enter the account's sort code and account number. You'll need to pay the following Nationwide account: sort code 07 00 94 and account number 44444445.
  4. Add your payment reference. Here you'll need to enter your mortgage account number.

Transfers can take typically three to five working days to show on your mortgage account.
