Maturity

In the month of maturity, we will send you a Maturity Schedule outlining the options available at that time. If you wish to withdraw funds at term-end, you will need to complete this schedule and return it to the Society. On the date of maturity, unless you tell us otherwise, your investment will automatically transfer to a new 1 year Fixed-Rate Bond. You will have 14 days to change your mind.

Additional information

The information contained in this summary box forms part of the terms and conditions of the account and should be read in conjunction with our Terms & Conditions for Savers.

 
*Interest rate terms explained:

AER

(Annual Equivalent Rate) differs from the Gross annual interest rate if interest is paid more than once a year. If interest is added to the account, it also earns interest, and the AER reflects this by showing the rate as if interest were paid annually.

Gross

This means we do not take income tax off the interest.

Personal Savings Allowance (PSA)

You may need to pay tax on any interest that takes you over your PSA. The treatment of your account for tax purposes will depend on your individual circumstances. All tax information is based on our understanding of current law and HM Revenue & Customs practice, both of which may change. For more information, visit hmrc.gov.uk
