Kaupthing Edge savings accounts

Kaupthing’s Edge savings business has been transferred to ING Direct.

Mortgage and loan customers’ terms and conditions remain the same and you should continue to make repayments as usual.

Any queries should be directed to the ING Direct customer service team on 0845 848 0282

Is my money safe?

Kaupthing’s saving business has been bought by ING Direct to protect your money.

What does this actually mean for depositors?

All retail Kaupthing Edge savings accounts have been transferred to ING Direct.

If you have another savings account (that is, not an Edge account) the government will ensure these will be repaid to depositors who are eligible to claim under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS), including deposits in excess of the £50,000 FSCS limit, with the government covering the excess.
