The gross rate is the interest rate we pay where no income tax has been deducted.
AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and shows what the interest rate would be if we paid interest and added it to your account each year.
12 and 24 month Fixed Term Deposits only
If you put money in your account after 1 October 2026, the maturity date will be different.
Interest is paid on the 1st of the month after the funding of the account. Interest is then paid yearly into your term deposit. We'll pay interest again on the maturity date.

We'll support you if you've fallen victim to a fraud. You can find out more about our approach to fraud, on our website.
We'll let you know by email that we're ready to receive your money by electronic transfer.
We only accept deposits to a Fixed Term Deposit Account by electronic transfer. Deposits must be paid in on working days.
You can't send money directly to your FTD. You'll need to send it to our control account first and we'll move it to your account for you.
The bank details you need are below:
Sort code: 16-57-10
Account number: 53673440
Account name: Term Deposit Control Account
Reference: Your Fixed Term Deposit account name (we need this so we know where to deposit the funds).
3, 6 and 9 month FTDs
You can only make one payment into this account. The interest rate you'll get is the rate available the date your account is funded. Once you've done this, we'll send you your term certificate. You can't add any more money.
12 and 24 month FTDs
You'll have 31 days to pay money into your account from the date we tell you it's open. If we don't receive the initial money by this date, we'll close the account. We might ask you to reapply.
12 and 24 month FTDs mature on the first day of the month after the fixed term ends. You can find this date on the account fact sheet.
3, 6 and 9 month FTDs mature on the same day of the month as they were taken out. For example, a 3 month FTD taken out on 14 November will mature on 14 February.
If the month the deposit matures has less days in it than the month it started, it will mature on the last day of that month. For example, if you take a 3 month FTD out on 31 January, it will mature on 30 April as April only has 30 days in it.
We'll write to you 30 and 14 days before your current FTD matures to ask what you want to do.
We'll ask you to choose 1 of these options:
rollover the full amount, with interest earned, into a new FTD
add more money and rollover the full balance, with interest earned, into a new FTD
withdraw some money and rollover the balance, with interest earned, into a new FTD
withdraw the full amount, with interest earned, into an account in your name.
When rolling over, we'll ask you to confirm your details are the same as when you first applied. If your details have changed, to keep our information up to date, we might ask you to reapply.
