Common questions

Using eQ Mobile

What accounts and balances information can I see using the eQ Mobile?

You'll see all your accounts and balances in the app, including sterling and multi‑currency accounts.

For each account, you can view:

account short name
account number
sort code
account type
currency
BIC
IBAN.

For multi‑currency accounts, you’ll also see all currencies available for that account.

To refresh your balances, simply pull down on the Accounts & balances screen.

While using eQ Mobile, can I still access eQ online banking?

Yes, you can use the app and eQ online banking at the same time.

Can I register eQ Mobile on more than one device?

No, you can only use eQ Mobile on one device at a time.

If you set it up on a new device, it will automatically replace your existing one, so you’ll need to re-register if you switch back.

How do I reset my 6-digit keycode?

If you've forgotten your keycode or just want to change it, you can reset it at any time using the Forgotten your keycode option on the log in screen.

For security, you'll need to re‑register your customer numbers using your smartcard and reader.

Can I still use the app if I change my phone?

Yes, you'll just need to download eQ Mobile on your new phone and set it up again.

It’s also a good idea to remove the app from your old device once you’re set up.

Biometric approvals

Do I need to enable biometrics on my phone to use eQ Mobile?

Yes, you will need enabled biometrics on your device to use eQ Mobile.

Face ID and/or Touch ID on compatible Apple devices
Android Fingerprint on compatible Android devices.

For security, we will ask you to set up both biometrics and a 6-digit keycode during registration.

What happens if I change the biometrics on my device?

If you change the biometrics on your device (for example, by adding a new fingerprint), you’ll need to re‑register your customer numbers.

This helps protect your accounts and keep your details secure.

Can I approve a batch that includes a lapsed payment?

Yes. You can still approve a batch that contains a lapsed payment. All active payments in the batch will be authorised and released. Any payment that has lapsed will need to be re‑entered in eQ online banking before it can be authorised again.
