Why An Online Savings Account?

Online Savings Accounts can be managed at any time, making it easier for you when you cannot reach your branch. Savings Accounts are there for you to earn interest and it is quick and easy to register for an online savings account

Online Savings Accounts Available:

Easy Access Online Savings Accounts 

Easy Access Online Savings Accounts can come with variable interest rates, allowing you to add or withdraw money whenever it suits you. They do not always pay the most competitive rates, however they are great for those who want the option to save with flexibility and ease. They usually pay interest on much larger balances than current accounts.

Notice Savings Accounts

Similar to Easy Access Savings Accounts, except that they usually offer better interest rates in exchange for you having to give the bank a set amount of notice before withdrawing funds. Notice periods vary, but 30, 60, 90 and 120 days are most common.

Fixed Rate Bonds

Fixed Rate Bonds offer guaranteed rates of interest in exchange for agreeing not to touch your online savings for a set period of time. They usually last for 1, 2, 3 or 5 years and some will allow you to withdraw your money early in exchange for a penalty fee.

ISAs

ISAs allow you to earn interest on your online savings tax free on deposits up to a threshold decided each year by the UK government. For the 2017/2018 tax year, the limit is £20,000. There are various types of ISAs, including those offering both fixed and variable rates, plus various specialist ISAs.
