No, you can apply as a new customer using internet Banking. If you are an existing customer, you can register for online access at digitalbanking.ubluk.com.
The registration details you set via Internet Banking will enable you to access Mobile Banking if you wish to in the future. Simply download the app and register your device following the 'Existing Customer' route.
In order to improve logging into Internet Banking on a computer, we have developed a new and enhanced login process that works in conjunction with the Mobile App. However, if you do not wish to download Mobile Banking, but still wish to use Internet Banking, you can do so. You’ll simply need to register for the new internet-banking platform using your existing customer information, set a new password and passcode, and have access to a mobile phone capable of receiving SMS One Time Passcodes (OTP) to verify certain activity. It is important that for security purposes, only you have access to the mobile number and it is unique to you.
The first time you register for the new platform, either on your mobile device or using the Internet Banking portal, you will verify your identity and then set new password and security credentials. You will use these details to login to both Mobile and Internet Banking.
If you are applying as a new customer on internet or mobile banking, these details will be set as part of the registration process.
However, the first time you use a new device on Mobile Banking, or if you upgrade your phone, we will need to authenticate your device so you will need to follow a process to register your account to that device, but you will use the security information already set at your first login.
To access Internet Banking, you’ll simply need to visit www.ubluk.com , and use the buttons in the top right of the home page to navigate to ‘New Internet Banking’. If you are an existing NetBanking User, on your first visit you will need to follow the registration process. Once you have registered and set your login information, you can access the login screen directly by visiting digitalbanking.ubluk.com, or use the links to internet banking at the top of the UBL UK home page.
If you have registered on Mobile but wish to access internet banking, simply visit the internet banking portal and log in using your preferred route with the same details you use to access mobile banking.
In order to ensure continuity of service and to continue to deliver UBL UK’s high levels of service, customers will be migrated to the new platform in a staggered approach. We will be requesting that customers register for the new platform only when they receive the letter instructing them to do so. A letter will be sent to you when it is your turn to register for the platform. Until that time, you will continue to use the existing platforms, but once you have registered for the new service, you will no longer be able to access the old version.
In order to complete registration you will need: your account information, personal details, answers to your security questions and either your UK Driving License or Passport. We will use this information to electronically verify your identity, and link your account to you profile. When registering on a mobile device you have two options. You can use you devices camera to scan your ID documentation to verify your identity, or you can manually enter your information. When registering for internet banking, you may only use the manual entry route.
The App is available for download on iOS and Android devices. Here are some common troubleshooting solutions to try should you have any problems downloading the app:

Secure messages can be sent from the mobile app or the internet banking portal that are directly sent to our Customer Services Team. They are secure in that they come from your profile, so a response can be given that will be sent to your mobile or internet banking profile. It is a useful solution to receive answers to queries where the response is not urgent, or to make requests for transaction on your accounts outside limits instead of sending instructions in writing by post. We typically aim to respond to secure messages within 24 hours.
To send a secure message through the mobile app or portal, simply select the burger menu (three horizontal white lines) in the top left, and navigate to ‘Secure Messages’. You will see a record of any conversations – with messages you have sent and their replies. If you have a message waiting in response to a secure message, a notification will be displayed in your home screen.
