Is Your Bank FSCS Protected?

Eligible UK deposits are covered up to £120,000 per person, per banking licence — not per brand. Search any bank or savings app.

The short version

One licence, one £120,000 limit

UK deposits are covered up to £120,000 per person, per banking licence — not per brand.

Halifax and Bank of Scotland share one limit. first direct, HSBC and M&S Bank share another.

Apps like Chip or Raisin are not banks: the partner holding your cash is what counts. NS&I is backed by the Treasury instead.

This is general guidance only, please confirm on the FCA register or FSCS website.

Frequently asked questions

How much of my savings is FSCS protected?+

The Financial Services Compensation Scheme protects eligible deposits up to £120,000 per person, per banking licence. The limit rose from £85,000 on 1 December 2025.

Is the FSCS limit per bank or per account?+

Per banking licence, not per account and not always per brand. If two high-street names sit under the same authorised firm, your money at both counts towards one £120,000 limit.

What happens if I have a joint account?+

Each account holder gets their own £120,000 limit, so a joint account is typically covered up to £240,000.

Are Halifax and Bank of Scotland the same for FSCS?+

Yes. Halifax is a division of Bank of Scotland plc, so money at Halifax and Bank of Scotland shares one £120,000 limit. Lloyds Bank has a separate licence.

Is first direct FSCS protected?+

Yes. first direct is a division of HSBC UK Bank plc, so it shares one £120,000 limit with HSBC and M&S Bank.

Is Chase FSCS protected?+

Yes. Chase UK savings are protected under J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, a UK-authorised firm, up to £120,000 per person.

Does Tesco Bank still have its own FSCS licence?+

No. Tesco Bank savings moved to Barclays Bank UK plc in November 2024, so they now share Barclays' £120,000 limit.

Is Chip FSCS protected?+

Chip is not a bank. Money in Chip savings accounts is held with a partner bank and protected under that bank's own FSCS licence. Investments held through Chip are not deposit-protected.

Is Revolut FSCS protected?+

Revolut's UK savings are held with partner banks and protected under that bank's licence. Instant-access e-money balances are safeguarded, not FSCS-protected. Check in the Revolut app which bank holds a savings pot.

Are NS&I savings FSCS protected?+

NS&I is not in the FSCS. It is an executive agency of the Treasury, so every penny is backed by HM Treasury instead of the usual limit.

Are EU banks on savings marketplaces FSCS protected?+

Usually not. A German, Dutch or French bank on a UK marketplace is typically covered by that country's deposit guarantee scheme (often €100,000), not the FSCS.

What is a temporary high balance?+

If you have a large, short-term deposit from something like a house sale, inheritance or redundancy, the FSCS can protect up to £1.4 million per person for up to six months. You have to claim it — it is not automatic.

How do I check a bank on the FCA register?+

Search the Financial Services Register for the firm's legal name. The Firm Reference Number (FRN) is the unique ID for that banking licence. Trading names listed against the same FRN share one compensation limit.
