This form will be pre-populated and made available in your Raisin Online Banking with instructions on what to do when you apply for your savings product. You then only have to sign it (number I in part 2.) and send/upload a clearly readable PDF/scan/photo of it to us.
Note: The form must only be provided once per customer and per bank , and only in the customer's name. It is not necessary to submit this document separately to the bank in question for each savings product. The signature must be a 'wet signature'. It is not possible to sign the document digitally.
