Bank statements printed at the bank should be stamped?

Post by phss » Mon Apr 08, 2013 2:22 pm

I just went to Natwest, and they printed my last 6 months statements. The lady told me that they can't stamp the statements, but it should be fine since it shows the Natwest header on it.

Is that true, or do I really need them stamped? Also, is 6 months enough time?

As per my understanding as far as the bank statements are not internet copies you dont need the bank attestation.. Otherwise you do need it!

Clever man!

Anyway, I only know of Barclays which has attested in the past. HSBC have told me that they dont even have a stamp to attest.

I think the home office guidance is that Cash point statements and Internet banking statements arent allowed.

No reason why a statement on company header wont be allowed.

I have managed to get a reference letter from my bank to state that I am the account holder and that has my address, So I think that should clarify everything for the case worker.

If it is on bank letter headed paper than it should be fine.

The thing is, it looks just like something someone just printed. It's a black and white statement, with Natwest logo on the top and my general details and transactions. It doesn't look like a fancy statement (like the ones the bank sends at home).

Is that what a bank letter header paper is?

I got my printed from Natwest as well, and same black and white with Natwest logo and said they wont stamp it as it should be accepted.

Passed the statement to Solicitors and he was happy with it. :)

LLOYDs and BARCLAYS Stamp their statements. Why don't you give the statements received by you by post. For Tier2/WPs, CW has been seeing 1/3 statements.Tier1 12 Month's statements are required.
