Help logging in
Managing your savings online is quick, easy and safe. When you log into your NS&I account online, we use two-factor authentication (2FA) to ensure it’s you. 2FA works by adding another second step to the login process, other than just having a password. This extra layer of security keeps your account even safer from fraud. But, for 2FA to work, it's important that the phone number you have registered with us is up to date.

We have dedicated page with advice and tips that should help you through the extra steps involved with two-factor authentication.
