Important Information

  • Interest rates are variable and calculated on a daily basis. Bonus rates are fixed (unless otherwise stated), calculated on a daily basis and paid annually in accordance with the account terms and conditions.
  • 'AER' stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and compounded each year.  As every advert for a savings product will contain an AER, you will be able to compare more easily what return you can expect from your savings over time.
  • The gross rate is the contractual rate of interest payable before the deduction of income tax at the specified rate.
  • 'Net' means the rate of interest payable after income tax is deducted at the appropriate rate, currently 20%.
  • Full terms and conditions are available on request.
