Payout bank account - Change of details

[adamct]

Hello,

I need to change the bank details of my payout bank account, but I don't have my old account number and sort code. The old account was web based and has been deleted due to lack of use while I was building my Shopify store. I have no way of finding out the old details that are normally required to update the account number and sort.

Could a Shopify rep please assist?

Hi @adamct, 

Thanks for your post! I can certainly help you out. Can you double check the following to see if you can access the information you need?  

• Look for a Void Cheque: A blank cheque issued from your bank which shows the banking details of the account in question
• Access Online Banking: Check to see if you still have access to the bank account login. You could log in to online banking (if available) and should be able to locate the banking details there.
• Contacting a bank representative: You could also contact your bank directly to request the old banking details.
• Search for a paper statement from bank: See if you have an old paper statement in your files from your bank to find these details (if available)

If you're unable to retrieve these details, please check your email as I have sent you a message with the next steps to take.

Hello

Hi @RandyB, 

Thanks for getting in touch. Can you confirm you were unable to find the old number by any of the following measures: 

• Look for a Void Cheque: A blank cheque issued from your bank which shows the banking details of the account in question
• Access Online Banking: Check to see if you still have access to the bank account login. You could log in to online banking (if available) and should be able to locate the banking details there.
• Contacting a bank representative: You could also contact your bank directly to request the old banking details.
• Search for a paper statement from bank: See if you have an old paper statement in your files from your bank to find these details (if available)

If you're unable to retrieve these details, that's okay. I have reached out via email to provide you the next steps! 

Thanks,

Hi @Ren 

I'm having the same issue as everyone else is. I find it curious that i'm being asked to update my bank details when I haven't changed them in years. 

i can't get access what I entered into on my account to be able to change it but i do have the information required. 

Hopefully you can provide me with assistance 

Michael

Hello,
I have a problem updating my payout information. I think I made a mistake with the account information I entered.. so now I don’t know exactly what I entered in order for me to enter the right details. Thanks for the help in advance

[Bonny_Forant]

Can you send me the same email please. Thank you.

[Mikenado]

Thank you

@Mikenado,

Thank you! I have sent your request for help along to our Accounts team. Please allow 24-72 hours for them to review and process the request. You can expect any follow up via email directly.

Hello @Bonny_Forant & @Meserwaa, 

Thank you both for getting in touch. As long as you have exhausted the list noted at the beginning of the thread (I will include it below), then we can certainly proceed via email. It's always recommended to make sure you definitely cannot access the old bank number since this would be the fastest way of getting yourself set up with a new account. 

• Look for a Void Cheque: A blank cheque issued from your bank which shows the banking details of the account in question
• Access Online Banking: Check to see if you still have access to the bank account login. You could log in to online banking (if available) and should be able to locate the banking details there.
• Contacting a bank representative: You could also contact your bank directly to request the old banking details.
• Search for a paper statement from bank: See if you have an old paper statement in your files from your bank to find these details (if available)

I have reached out to you both via email to move forward should the above steps not result in finding a valid bank account number to work with.

Hello @Ren , 

I am having the same issue as the users on this thread. Can you please assist? I have moved and no longer have access to the old account information.

Hi so I am also have a similar problem and have been trying to get into contact with one of you for a while now. My account isn't paying out. I can't change the banking info because I entered it wrong when i made the account. therefore i dont have the old banking number because there is no way to know what I put in before. 

[Ren]

Hey @ProudPapa and @cyane-skin-care,

I have gone ahead and sent you each secure emails with some instructions. Please respond as requested whenever you get a chance and our team can escalate your request for you.
