What is the interest rate and is it fixed?

3.75% tax-free p.a./AER variable including conditional bonus (if up to five withdrawals are made in each interest year).
2.50% tax-free p.a./AER variable excluding conditional bonus (if six or more withdrawals are made in each interest year or the account is closed).

The interest on this account is variable, this means that it can go up or down. The basis on which we might change your interest rate is set out in our branch savings terms and conditions.

How much can I save in this account?

You will need £500 to open an account and the balance must not fall below that amount. You can pay in as much as you like up to the annual ISA allowance (£20,000 for the current tax year). You can also make unlimited transfers (either part or entire balances) of previous ISA subscriptions from any bank or building society up to £750,000.

Can I withdraw money?

Withdrawals/transfers can be made and are limited to five per interest year to qualify for the 'including conditional bonus' rate. If six or more withdrawals are made or the account is closed, you will be paid the 'excluding conditional bonus' interest rate until the day before the start of the interest year (1st February to 31st January). The interest rate and the number of withdrawals is reset on February 1st annually.

Will I be taxed on the interest?

No, the interest you'll receive will be tax-free.

How can I open an account?
