Important update
    Changes to the Bank of England Base Rate

    The Bank of England decreased Base Rate from 5.00% to 4.75% on Thursday 7 November 2024. 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.

    Fixed Rate Bond

    Our Fixed Rate Bonds give you a fixed rate for the whole of your chosen term. It means you’ll always be sure how much interest you’ll earn annually or at maturity.

    At a glance

    Fixed rate

    The rate is fixed, so it will stay the same for the entire term of your savings account. We guarantee to pay the advertised interest rate if your full cash deposit is paid into the account within 10 calendar days. 

    Interest payments

    Interest starts to accrue when your cleared funds are received. Interest is not compounded and is payable annually and at maturity into your nominated bank account. 

    Adding funds

    The minimum opening deposit is £10,000 and the maximum is £2 million. Single or multiple deposits can be used to send us your funds within 10 calendar days of accepting your application. 

    Withdrawals

    You cannot withdraw funds or deposit additional funds during the product term. 

    Account holders

    Once we have accepted your application, you will not be able to transfer into another person's name, add a person or remove a person. 

    Maturity

    We will write to you around 14 days before your Fixed Rate Bond matures to outline your options. If no maturity instructions are received at the end of the fixed term, your balance will be paid into an Easy Access Maturity Account.

    If you're looking to deposit over £1 million, get in touch with us so we can discuss your options.
