What is co-sign online?
Co-sign online allows you to make one-off payments on your two-to-sign account through FastNet Classic internet banking - no need to visit a branch with your second authorised signatory. Simply create the payment and get your signatory to approve it - all in FastNet Classic.
This service is perfect if you've previously relied on cheques to make one-off payments from your two-to-sign accounts.
