Interest Rate Definitions

1. AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and added to the account once each year.
2. Gross – The gross rate of interest is the interest rate payable before any income tax is deducted (if you do pay tax).

This account has a variable rate of interest and is subject to change; this means we may increase or decrease interest rates at any time. If we reduce the interest rate and you have at least £100 in your account, we will give you 14 days notification, plus your account’s period of notice, before the rate reduction becomes effective. In this case your accounts normal notice period for making withdrawals from or closing the account will apply. Please refer to section 7 of the Savings Account General Terms and Conditions for further information on how and why we might change the interest rate.

Based on the current rate of interest, if you deposited £1,000 in this account, after 12 months your estimated balance would be £1,048.50.
