Summary box for the Everyday Saver
-
0.01% gross/AER variable rate on balances of £1 or more.
Your interest is paid 12 months after you open the account.
-
Yes. As this account pays a variable rate of interest it can change over time. We’ll always let you know of any planned changes to the rate. Our account conditions (PDF) explain when and how we do this. For example, we might review the interest rate if the Bank of England base rate changes.
-
For example, if you deposit £1000.00 when you open the account, the balance after 12 months will be £1000.10.
This assumes:

Gross rate means we won’t deduct tax from the interest we pay on money in your account. You will need to pay any tax you may owe to HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC).
AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate. Whenever you see an advert for a savings account which shows an interest rate, you will see the AER. This means you can use the AER to compare accounts. It shows what the interest rate would be if your interest was paid and compounded once each year.
