We are delighted to confirm that, as of 7 December 2022, we have increased our savings rates by up to 0.75%.
You can find a full list of interest rate changes to our open savings accounts here.
If you'd like to look at the changes to interest rates on your existing savings accounts which are currently closed to new customers, click here.
If you have an Existing Member Account (EMA), you can now 'top-up' your subscription to a maximum of £4,000 this fiscal year (ending 5 April 2023).
If you're an existing savings customer who has been a member for 12 months or more or you have a mortgage with us at present, you qualify for an EMA account. Full details of the EMA account are here.
We've also removed the postcode restrictions which were previously applied to our savings accounts. Our savings accounts can now be opened by new customers living anywhere in England or Wales.
