Convert a Virgin Money PDF statement to FreeAgent

Drop your Virgin Money PDF below and get date, amount and description in the order FreeAgent expects, with no header row — which is what FreeAgent's uploader wants. Your statement never leaves your computer.

Drop your statement here

or choose a file — nothing is uploaded

Works with most bank statements containing selectable text. Scanned statements and photographs of paper cannot be read.

What you get

The download is a .csv file, deliberately without a header row, with these columns, in this order:

  1. Date
  2. Amount
  3. Description

Worth knowing. The file deliberately has no header row and no byte-order mark, because FreeAgent reads the first line as data. If you open it in Excel and re-save it, Excel may add both back and the upload will reject the first row.

How to download your Virgin Money statement as a PDF

  1. Sign in to Virgin Money online banking.
  2. Open the account and find statements or documents.
  3. Choose the statement period you need.
  4. Download the PDF — not a print or a screenshot.

Banking apps rename their menus from time to time, so the exact wording may differ slightly. You are looking for the original PDF statement rather than a printout or a screenshot — a printed copy sometimes loses the table structure the converter reads.

How to import it into FreeAgent

  1. In FreeAgent, open the bank account you are uploading to.
  2. Choose the option to upload a statement.
  3. Select the downloaded CSV.
  4. Review the transactions FreeAgent shows you and confirm.

Accounting packages move their menus around between releases, so these are written to describe what you are looking for rather than an exact path.

Notes for Virgin Money statements

The converter reads table structure rather than a per-bank template, so no bank-specific handling is needed. It has not been checked against a real Virgin Money file, so use the free preview and the balance cross-check on the results page before unlocking anything.

Why the conversion happens in your browser

A bank statement lists your income, your address, your spending and your account number. Most converters ask you to upload that to their servers and keep it there. This one reads the file locally instead, so there is no copy of your statement anywhere but your own machine — and nothing that can be breached later.

Common questions

Why does the file have no column headings?

FreeAgent's statement upload expects the first line to be a transaction, not a heading. Adding headers would make it reject the first row.

Should I open it in Excel first to check it?

You can, but do not save it from Excel — Excel tends to add a header and a byte-order mark on save, both of which break the upload. Check it, then upload the original download.

Is my Virgin Money statement uploaded to convert it?

No. The PDF is read by JavaScript running in your own browser, and there is no endpoint on this site that can receive it. You can watch your browser's network tab while it converts and see that nothing carrying the file leaves.

How do I know the figures are right before I import them?

Where your Virgin Money statement prints a running balance, every amount is re-checked against it and you are told how many rows that covered. Anything that could not be read safely is listed separately and left out of the file rather than guessed at. Check both before importing into FreeAgent.

What does it cost?

One page credit converts one page, and five are free on your first visit. If a statement is longer than your balance covers, the opening pages convert free as a preview so you can see whether it reads your layout before paying. Nothing is charged when a conversion fails.
