Look for string "bank account:" (case-insensitive)

DavidUnderdown commented 6 years ago

To generalise this a bit, Brits would typically cite sort code and account number (or account no), you can sometimes find roll number (or no) in addition. Sort code essentially identifies the bank (and branch) where the account is held and is always in the form nn-nn-nn, account number is from memory either seven or eight digits. Others identifiers such as SWIFT or IBAN for international transfers could well appear.

Thanks, David! I appreciate the tip.
