Customer Information - International Payment Service
From Thursday 4 June customers will no longer be able to make or receive international payments from or into Cumberland accounts; this includes both personal and business accounts.

International Payment FAQs
An international payment is any payment sent to or received from anywhere outside of the United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland).
The Channel Islands (Jersey & Guernsey) and the Isle of Man are not part of the United Kingdom and therefore would be an international payment.
One of our priorities is to safeguard our business for the future. As part of this, we are investing in a new banking platform to ensure The Cumberland continues to thrive for many years to come.
In readiness for the new banking platform, we have reviewed our current banking services, and we can no longer support international payments.
You can use your Cumberland account to make the payment up to and including Wednesday 3 June 2026.
From Thursday 4 June 2026 you will need to make these through another provider who provides international payment services.
There are many other providers of international payments in the UK. We are unable to recommend a specific provider however a selection of other payment providers is included below. This list will help you to find an alternative service.
Important: If you choose another provider then please ensure you read and understand the terms and conditions of the service including any fees. We are not responsible or liable for services offered by 3rd party providers and we are unable to confirm the suitability of other services for your specific needs.
