Wrap up your tax free savings

Interest is calculated daily and may be visible on your account from the 24th of the month. This won’t be available to you until the due date of the last working day of the applicable month.

If the balance on the account falls below the minimum of £5,000, no interest will be earned until the minimum balance is reached again.

*Interest is paid free from UK tax.

**AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and added once each year.

The interest rate is variable which means we can increase or decrease the rate at any time.

For more details about why we may change the rate, and how and when we will let you know about a change, please refer to the Interest section of the General Savings Account Terms and Conditions.
