What is a Savings Bond?
Our limited-edition Savings Bonds pay a fixed rate of interest for
a fixed term, making them ideal for lump sum deposits. We offer various
Savings Bonds with varying terms – saving for a longer term could give you
a higher rate of interest.
What’s the interest rate?
Our Bonds offer different rates, depending on the term - the longer the term, the higher the interest rate is.
The rate is fixed for the term of the Bond, so you know exactly how much interest you’ll get back when the Bond matures.
How do I open a Savings Bond?
You can open a Savings Bond in one of our Relationship Centres, or if it’s easier for you, you can download an application form and post it to us with a cheque for your initial deposit and proof of ID.
How much can I save in a Savings Bond?
The minimum opening balance is £500 up to a maximum of £1,000,000.
Additional funds can only be deposited in the 14 days after the Bond
is opened. After the first 14 days, no further funds can be deposited during
the term.
Can I withdraw money?
No withdrawals are permitted during the fixed rate period. When the Bond
matures, you can withdraw your maturing funds or transfer some, or all, of
your funds to a new Bond.
Can I close my Savings Bond early?
No – your funds need to remain in the Bond until it matures.
Our Bonds are offered on a first-come, first-served basis and can be withdrawn
once the subscription is full. If we receive your application after the Bond is fully
subscribed, we’ll contact you for further instructions.
