Why choose Fixed Term Savings?

Know in advance what your money will earn with a fixed interest rate for a set term.

You can choose a fixed term that suits you, either;

  • 3, 6, or 12 months and start saving from £5,000 
  • 2 or 3 years on balances from £25,000 

2 and 3 year fixed terms are a limited offer and may be withdrawn from sale at any time without prior notice.

Cash Management account

When you apply for a Fixed Term Savings account you must already hold a Cash Management account or we’ll open one during your application so that we can pay any interest you’ve earned, along with you deposit, when the saving term comes to an end.

We may need to confirm your identity and/or proof of your residential address when opening your Cash Management account.
