The M account is our free to use and super straightforward current account. If you're 16 or over and looking for a simple current account, it could be just what you're looking for.
It's also there for you if you've experienced financial difficulties or have a poor credit record. This might make it harder for you to be accepted for other bank accounts. You can open this account over the phone or in store.
The M Account doesn’t come with an Arranged Overdraft. If you’re over 18 and looking for a current account which offers an overdraft (subject to status) then take a look at our Virgin Money Current Account.
As an existing Readycash customer you will have received an email or a letter to let you know that we are giving your account a Virgin Money makeover and it will become a shiny new M Account.
It’s more than just a name change – your features and digital services are getting an upgrade too, with a new mobile app and an exclusive optional linked savings account.
Your Readycash account will become an M Account from 24 February 2021. If you’re happy with the name change, you don’t need to do anything as all your account details will stay the same and your Direct Debits and standing orders won’t change.
