If you’re a Mayfair account holder, you need to apply for View-Only access. This option gives you access to the business accounts held, enabling you to see accounts, balances, recent transactions and historic statements, but not carry out any actions.
If you apply for Full Access, your application will be returned to you and you’ll need to reapply for View-Only access.
To apply for View-Only access, just follow the steps below:
Step 1. During internet banking registration, please select ’No’ to the ’Are you a Full Signatory on the bank mandate?’ question. You’ll then be taken to the Delegate registration form.
Step 2. On the printed form that you complete at the end of the online process, please check either the box marked ’View Only access to all accounts’, or ’View Only access to the accounts selected below’.
