The following list of abbreviations, used on Barclays bank statements is probably pretty much the same for other banks........

 

What do the abbreviations mean on my statement?

 

Here's a list of what common banking abbreviations relate to:

 

APR - Annual Percentage Rate (relates to credit interest).

BBP - bill payment.

BCC - Barclays Connect Card.

BGC - bank giro credit.

CAT - a standard applied to ISAs that stands for reasonable Charges,

easy Access, fair Terms.

CDL - Career Development Loan.

CHAPS - Clearing House Automated Payment System (a means of

transferring money).

DDR - Direct Debit.

DR - debit balance (overdrawn).

IBAN - International Bank Account Number (you can find this on your

statement).

IMO - International Money Order.

ISA - Individual Savings Account.

REM - remittance: a cheque credited to your account that was not paid in

at your home/own account-holding branch or bank.

REV - reversal: a standing order or Direct Debit has been recalled.

STO - standing order.

UNP - unpaid.

 

 

I originally posted this in the Barclays section, but as it may be of some use in other banks, I have re-posted it here as well.

 

Hope you find it useful.

I have deleted the other one, in the hope that any other queries relating to abbreviations can be kept in the same place, so that everyone can see them.

 

Many thanks...

Hello everyone! I'm translating a bank statement into spanish and found some abbreviations hard to understand, I hope you could help me out, thanks in advance.

 

DATE AMOUNT TRANSACTION DESCRIPTION

11/10 1,250,000.00 INT BH TRNSFR DR TO TEL AVIV

11/30 1,852.10 OD FINANCE CHARGE

 

05/19 2,680.90 INTEREST TRANSFER CR ST TRANSFER

 

INT BH TRNSFR DR

(my attempt was "Interest BH (name of the financial entity) transfer direct)

 

OD = I figured out it could be "overdraft or overdue"

 

ST Transfer = I have no clue what it might be.

 

I hope you could help me out on those ones. Thanks again!

:)

OD is overdrawn.

ST transfer= Standard Transfer(ie you can have standard or urgent transfer). I have seen Standard transfer referred to as STD(so I think you were lucky ;) ).

I'm with First Direct and NatWest and they are a bit different on one:

DR account overdrawn OR debit item

This is important as I've seen a lot of answers to this question elsewhere state that DR simply means you are overdrawn. Certainly doesn't in my case. I think the answers.com list is possibly a bit more accurate. wiki.answers.com/Q/What_do_DR_on_a_bank_statement_mean
