ACE Current Account

UBL UK does not offer arranged overdrafts, but in the event that you find yourself in an unarranged overdraft, the interest rate applied to negative balance accounts as of 14.04.20 is 28.07% Equivalent Annual Rate (EAR) Variable.

In line with new rules, on 14.04.2020 UBL UK removed the £25 unarranged overdraft charge and now applies an EAR Variable rate, calculated daily and debited from your Account on the last calendar day of the month. UBL UK will provide 2 months' written notice of any changes to this EAR Variable rate.

*Assuming the Account moves into unarranged overdraft, and remains overdrawn for the same balance for the specified number of days.

In line with new rules, UBL UK does not charge an unarranged overdraft fee. However, fees detailed in the Personal Banking Schedule of Charges will still apply for all returned payments as a result of not having cleared funds in your Account. These returned payment fees may place your Account into an unarranged overdraft with any negative balances subject to unarranged overdraft interest charges being applied so it is important that you ensure there are sufficient funds in your Account to cover all payments. 

Details of unapproved overdraft charges are detailed in the Personal Banking Schedule of Charges.
