Receiving money from abroad account with Lloyds

frappuchino

Could anyone help me, as I am a bit confused.

I used to get money fine without any issues with my HSBC account as they have the long account number not sure how its called - the international one, not the one we use here with sorting code and short number- whenever i log into. But now I want to receive money with my Lloyds student account, where do I get my account number in the internet banking?
I tried to look into their help section but there was nothing about it except how to send to abroad, nothing how to receive. It's from an EU country.

Go to the help section, here:

and type (for example) What is my IBAN

You should get the answer that it is on your paper statements (if you get any!), or you can ring them to ask.

There also websites which construct your IBAN from your sort code and account number, but they are not 100% reliable.

If you dont get paper statements give them a call. I needed mine one day to arrange a payment while i was away from home, quick phone call to customer services sorted it
