Important updates
    Changes to the Bank of England Base Rate

    The Bank of England decreased Base Rate from 4.00% to 3.75% on Thursday 18 December 2025. Following this announcement, we will be reviewing how this impacts our current savings interest rates and this may mean we need to change your variable interest rate if this is applicable to your product. If we do, we will be in touch to let you know and provide you with your options.

    At a glance

    Fixed rate

    The interest rate is fixed and will not change during the term.

    Interest payments

    Interest begins to add up once your cleared payment is received. Interest is not compounded and is paid once a year and/or at the end of the term into your chosen bank account.

    Adding funds

    You need to deposit at least £10,000 to open the account, and you can deposit up to £2 million. You can send the money in single or multiple transfers within 10 days of your application being accepted.

    Withdrawals

    You can't take money out or add more money during the term of the account.

    Account holders

    Once your application is accepted, you cannot change the ownership of the account, by adding or removing anyone.

    Maturity

    We'll contact you about 14 days before your Fixed Rate Bond ends to explain your options. If we don't hear from you, your balance will go into an Easy Access Maturity Account.

    Additional information

    AER:

    AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates the interest rate you would earn from a savings account over the course of a year, and it takes any compounding of interest into account.

    Gross PA:

    Gross PA means Gross Per Annum, which shows the interest rate payable without tax deducted.
