OPERATING THE ACCOUNT
Any number of further deposits can be made into the account subject to the maximum investment.

To withdraw money, give the appropriate notice (7 or 90 days) in writing and you will incur no penalty. If you need access to your savings in a hurry, an immediate withdrawal can be made subject to either 7 or 90 days penalty loss of interest.

Cash withdrawals are subject to daily branch cash limits.

The account can be operated either in person at our branches or by post.

INTEREST RATES
Interest can be paid annually at 31st December or at the end of each month either into the account or to another bank account. Different interest rates apply for each method.

The interest rates are tiered, so you earn a higher rate of interest the more you save.

Interest rates are variable and we may change them at any time. We maintain interest rates at a competitive level.

Interest is normally paid after tax has been deducted, although it can be paid gross upon completion of the appropriate form. Please note that, by law, the Society has to supply annual details to HMRC of all interest paid or credited to investors.

IDENTIFICATION
Go to the Important Information page for full details of the identification required to open the account. Please be aware that, for legal reasons, we are unable to open an account unless valid identification is provided.
