Power of Attorney

To manage an account on someone else's behalf, you will need to apply for Power of Attorney authorisation.

What you need to use the online facility

You will need a Power of Attorney document which gives you, the attorney, full authority to manage the financial affairs of another person - your Donor - now and in the future. If the Power of Attorney document only allows you to deal with specific accounts on behalf of your Donor, or for a particular period of time, you won't be able to use the Power of Attorney online facility.

How to register for the online facility

If your Donor has an existing Internet Saver account and you would like to manage it on their behalf using the online Power of Attorney facility, you will need to complete the Power of Attorney and Sainsbury's Online Banking Application (PDF 59 KB). Then send it along with your original Power of Attorney document or a certified copy, plus any anti-money laundering documentation as specified on the application form to:
 
Sainsbury's Savings
PO Box 29191
Dunfermline
KY12 2AU

Already hold a Power of Attorney for an existing savings account?

You don't need to send your Power of Attorney document again as we'll already have the details. Simply complete the Power of Attorney and Sainsbury's Online Banking Application (PDF 59KB). Then send it to the above address.

If you and your Donor both have an existing account we will not require any anti-money laundering documentation from either of you.

Already registered online?

You will still need to register with a separate username and password to be able to manage your Donor's accounts online.

Need to cancel the online facility?

To cancel your Power of Attorney online facility or to let us know that your Power of Attorney has been revoked, please contact the online helpdesk on 0500 40 50 60*. Lines are open 8am to 10pm Mon - Fri and 8am - 8pm Saturday & Sunday. Or if you prefer you can write to us at the above address.

If you're calling about your partner's account

To comply with our Data Protection Act, we can only discuss accounts or online registration with the account holder unless they have given you authority by registering a valid Power of Attorney Document with Sainsbury's Finance.
