Old Cheque Books to Become Invalid Soon - How to Order a New Cheque Book

Urgent action required

Following the change of sort code for all NCC bank accounts, cheques quoting the old sort code (20-62-53) will shortly no longer be valid. So if you are still currently using an old cheque book then you will need to order a new one straight away.

Chequebooks can be ordered on www.barclays.net page and selecting:

  1. Barclays.Net Security Help Centre
  2. Servicing support
  3. Online servicing
  4. Order a cheque book

More details are available in the attached instructions on how to do this.

Please note: cheques quoting the old sort code which are dated 5 October 2018 or earlier will be valid for the usual six (6) months from date of issue. Cheques issued after 5 October 2018 quoting the old sort code will be rejected by Barclays.

Any new cheque books ordered will automatically be sent out quoting the new sort code (20-62-61).

Any queries please get in touch with Schools Finance Team.
