An abbey (from Latin abbatia, derived from Syriac abba, "father"), is a Christian monastery or convent, under the government of an Abbot or an Abbess, who serves as the spiritual father or mother of the community. The term can also refer to an establishment which has long ceased to function as an abbey, but continues to carry the name—in some cases for centuries (for example, see Westminster Abbey below).

Q. i have a current account with abbey, how do i check my bank balance online?
Asked by Katy - Thu Jul 24 11:55:03 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. you need to ring them up 08459 724 724 and ask your card (if you have one) to be linked to ebanking. they will send you out a passcode and then a couple of days after that a password. you then use these to log on and view your balance. you can also change the codes to ones you can remember better! i am an abbey customer and this is what you do!!!
