Interest rates stated above are available as at 08/08/2025 and expire on 18/09/2025 but may be subject to change. Once you open your deposit account, the interest rate is fixed, so will stay the same throughout your chosen term.
Interest is calculated as follows: Interest rate multiplied by the number of days of the fixed term divided by 365 days then multiplied by the initial deposit amount. For example, a £10,000 deposit for 3 months at a 2.50% interest rate would be calculated as follows: 2.50% x (91/365) x £10,000.
Interest is paid at the end of the agreed term.
1AER – The AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and is the notional rate, which illustrates the gross rate as if paid and compounded on an annual basis. As every advert for a savings product will contain an AER, you’ll be able to compare more easily what return you can expect from your savings over time.
2Gross Rate – Gross rate means that no tax will be automatically deducted from interest on your behalf. You are responsible for paying any tax due to HM Revenue and Customs.
