Giving a third party access to your bank accounts
Sometimes, you might need help to manage your bank accounts. If an Ulster Bank customer is mentally capable, then a third party mandate can be put in place to allow another person access to their bank accounts.
A third party mandate cannot be used in circumstances where a customer no longer has mental capacity.
