Privilege Account
Welcome to the Privilege Account from Wesleyan Bank.
For a small monthly subscription this account gives you access to a wide range of banking and other benefits designed to make your life easier.
The account is ideal if you want to keep a sum of money on-hand for when you need it but want to earn a much greater rate of interest than a standard current account.
You will be assigned a personal banker to ensure you get the most out of the benefits and services a Privilege Account offers.
To enjoy all the benefits of our Privilege Account you pay a monthly subscription of just £8 which is taken directly from your account.
More ways to bank - access to your account online, by phone or by cash machines. Make it your choice how you access your savings. For more information, please read 'Access your savings'
