How do I start a chat?

Once you've accessed the 'Chat with us' via either the M&S Banking app or Internet Banking, you can then go ahead and start your chat. When asking your question, keep it to a few words and straight to the point.

Here are a couple of examples:

  • I would like to activate my card
  • How can I check my PIN?
  • How do I make a payment?
  • When will I receive my Loyalty reward vouchers?

If MOBI is unsure what the question is, MOBI will ask some simple questions to help get you the right answer or transfer you to chat to an agent.

What can I do via 'Chat with us'?

With over 80 help topics, MOBI can help you with most of your day to day banking queries. If you need further help, MOBI will transfer you to agent who'll be able to support you further.

We can help via 'Chat' the same way we can over the phone with most* queries, whether that's looking for help disputing or recognising a transaction, requesting a settlement figure on your loan, information on your statements and balances or amending your Direct Debit amount, among many others, and we're here 24/7 when you need us.

*Make sure you're using the latest version of our app to ensure that all of our support features are available to you.

Will cancelling my card affect my Direct Debits?

Any payments set up from your credit card will be affected once the card is cancelled.

Can I still access my Internet Banking or Mobile Banking app if my card is cancelled?

Yes, you can still access all of your digital banking without any interruption. Your sign-in details for these services are not linked to your credit card.

What should I do if I find my card after reporting it lost or stolen?

Once your card is cancelled, it can’t be reactivated and your new card will already be on the way. You should destroy the card and dispose of it securely.
