- You can only make one deposit by bank transfer into the account each month, no further top up payments will be accepted.
Interest:
- Credited annually on the last day of the anniversary month of the account being opened.
- Interest rates on this account are variable and interest is calculated on a daily basis.
- Interest can be added to this account, transferred to another Society account you hold, paid to another UK bank or building society account, provided your balance does not fall below £25. If the balance falls below £25, interest can only be added to the account.
- A bonus interest payment will be paid on the last day of the anniversary month of the account being opened. The bonus will appear in your statement or passbook as a separate payment to the interest payment.
Withdrawals:
- No notice required.
- If more than 1 withdrawal is made per account year, you will not receive a bonus for that account year.
- Cheques must be deposited for 6 banking days following receipt, in order to "clear" before a withdrawal can be made against them.
- Withdrawals do not affect subscription limits of the ISA. If you have subscribed the maximum permitted in the tax year, you cannot make any further deposits regardless of withdrawals made.
- If the account balance falls below £25 then the Society reserves the right either to close the account or to pay an interest rate equivalent to the lowest tier on our Classic Gold account.
