Bus/Financial - Law: Contract(s) / Loan Agreement. Itemization of Financed Amount.
English term or phrase: prior account
This is part of the itemization of a financed loan amount:

"Amount paid directly to you
Amount paid on your prior account
Amount paid to others on your behalf"

I'm not sure whether this means "paid into a pre-exiting bank account of the borrower" or "used to settle an outstanding account" (the borrower had with the lender).

agree  Ramon Armora: Cuenta anterior. Previo significa: anticipado, que va delante o que sucede primero y no estoy 100% seguro pero previo de utilizarse complementando un sustantivo, como por ej. el día previo a las celebraciones.

cuenta pre-existente


Explanation:
There is now an account in use, but the payment was made through an account that was the active one. It was active before the opening of the actual account, into which the payment is being made. It was a pre-existing account.
