How do I amend a payee reference?

You can amend payee references on Anytime Internet Banking and the Mobile app. For help on how to amend a payee, follow one of the below options

You may need a card reader or mobile phone, if registered for biometrics, to amend your payee reference, so it's best to keep either handy.

 

Anytime Internet Banking

1. Log in to your Anytime Internet Banking service at www.anytimebanking.ulsterbank.co.uk (opens in a new window)
2. Select 'Payments and transfers' from the main menu, then on the payments and transfers landing page choose the account you want to make a payment from and select 'Pay one of your saved payees'
3. Follow the instructions on screen and change the reference at the same time when making the payment

The payee reference contains the reference information provided when the payee was created. Any changes you make to the payee reference will not be reflected in any scheduled payments.
