Email bereavement@moneyfarm.com or call 0800 433 4574. Moneyfarm will freeze the account and send a bereavement information pack explaining the documentation required.
You will need the deceased's email address (Moneyfarm login), full name, date of birth, and date of death. The bereavement pack will include a claim form to complete.
A certified copy of the death certificate is required. For estates going through probate, grant of probate or letters of administration will be required before funds are released.
Moneyfarm will liquidate the managed portfolio and transfer the proceeds to the estate's designated bank account. Moneyfarm does not offer in-specie transfers as it is a managed robo-advisory service.
Have multiple certified copies of the death certificate ready. Banks and financial institutions each require an original or certified copy — you cannot usually pass a single copy between organisations. See our guide to how many death certificates you need.
Moneyfarm typically takes 4–6 weeks to process a bereavement notification once all required documents have been received.
During this period, accounts or services will typically be frozen until the estate is administered. This means no new transactions can be authorised.
Moneyfarm is an Italian-founded fintech authorised by the FCA. In the event of Moneyfarm ceasing to trade, client assets are protected by FSCS up to £85,000 per person.
Not sure who you still need to tell?
Banks, utilities, DWP, DVLA. In 2 minutes Farra gives you the full list in order, with a tracker so nothing gets missed.
Once Moneyfarm receives your notification and confirms receipt, the account or service will be frozen and no new transactions will be authorised. Estate administration can then begin.
Moneyfarm will freeze the account and write to you with the documents required to transfer or encash the investments. You will typically need to provide a grant of probate (or letters of administration) and certified copies of the death certificate before assets can be released to the estate. ISA investments lose their tax-free wrapper on death but may benefit from an Additional Permitted Subscription (APS) allowance for a surviving spouse or civil partner.
Do not delay notifying Moneyfarm
Direct debits and standing orders may continue to be charged after death. Some organisations treat the estate as the debtor for any charges incurred before notification. Notifying Moneyfarm promptly protects the estate from unnecessary costs.
There are more people to tell than anyone expects.
Answer a few questions in under 2 minutes and Farra builds your notification plan: every bank, provider and government office to tell, in the right order, with the contact details and a tracker so nothing slips through.
