What is the interest rate?
| Annual Interest | Gross Rate* | Gross AER** |
| £0+ | 0.40% | 0.40% |
The interest rate is variable. Interest is calculated daily and added to your account annually on the 31st March. Interest is paid gross without tax deducted.
*The gross rate is the contractual rate of interest payable before the deduction of income tax at the rate specified by law.
**The AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and compounded once each year.
Can the Vernon Building Society change the interest rate?
We have the right to vary the rate of interest at any time.
Please see section 10 of our General Savings Account Terms & Conditions for a more detailed explanation which sets out when we can vary the interest rate and how and when we will notify you if this happens.
