ISA stands for Individual Savings Account where you don't pay tax on any interest you earn
1. What is the interest rate?
Definitions
Annual Equivalent Rate (AER) shows the interest rate if interest is paid and compounded once each year. AER helps you to compare the rates of interest on different accounts.
Compound interest is interest that is earned on interest that’s already been paid.
Gross means the interest rate you are paid on your savings with no compounding.
p.a. per annum (per year).
Tax-free. We pay all savings interest without the deduction of tax. You do not pay any UK tax on interest earned in ISAs. You may have to pay tax on interest earned in non-ISA accounts depending on your Personal Savings Allowance. The tax treatment may be subject to change in the future.
Bring all your ISAs together to one place
You can transfer funds from an ISA with another provider by completing our Cash ISA transfer form, or if you bank online you can use the paperless transfer request, remember it can take up to 7 days to complete your ISA transfer request.
How do I get additional support with my banking?
Banking My Way is a free service that allows you to record information about the support or adjustments you need to make banking easier. You can also let us know any additional support you may need to ensure all of our colleagues are aware of this. The information will be shared on our internal systems and therefore you will not need to repeat these requirements every time you interact with us.
Once your account is open, you can record this through Anytime Banking or with our colleagues in branches or over the phone.
