Heads up
A couple of things to keep in mind when you're transferring existing investment accounts to us.
- Your investments will be cashed in first and transferred to us as cash
- Before requesting a transfer just check for charges with your current provider
- We’ll process your transfer as quickly as possible but, just so you know, transferring between providers can take several weeks
- We’ll transfer your current Investment Account to us in cash, so your current investments will be sold first. You’ll be out of the market until your transfer completes. This means you won’t lose out if markets fall but, likewise you won’t benefit if markets rise

Choose your approachGot a question?
We've got the answer.
That depends on the type of investments you have and who your provider is. Sometimes it can take a few weeks, but we'll make it as quick and easy as we can. Here's how it works.
You give us details of the account(s) you want to transfer – including your current provider, your plan or account reference and the amount you want to transfer.
We'll contact your existing provider and usually get everything sorted online. Some providers won’t accept a digital signature, so we might get in touch again to ask you to sign and return a transfer form by post.
You'll be able to track the progress of your transfer in Online Service and we'll let you know when everything's complete.
You can transfer the value of existing investment accounts or general investment accounts into your Virgin Money Investment Account – when you apply or later on. Just remember, your current provider will need to sell your investments and transfer the value of them to us as cash. So you will be out of the market for a short time while the transfer is happening.
You can make payments into your Investment Account by:
- Debit card - if you're making a single payment.
- Direct debit - if you're making regular monthly payments.
- Transferring another investment account (or general investment account) to us.
- You can stop, start or change your payments whenever you like.
