Flexible savings that follow the Bank of England’s rate – with notice
Our Notice Base Rate Tracker account follows the Bank of England’s base rate, so you always know where you stand.
A Notice Base Rate Tracker account offers a variable rate that tracks the Bank of England base rate. With 95 days’ notice, you can access your money — with no fees, no fuss. You can deposit funds at any time, up to a total of £500,000 across all your accounts.
The interest rate tracks the Bank of England base rate, plus or minus a fixed spread (this is the rate that we add or subtract from the Bank of England base rate). When applying, you will have full clarity on the interest rate (which will include the Bank of England base rate and the spread). So, if the base rate goes up, your rate will go up; and if the rate comes down, your rate will follow.
Withdraw as often as you like — with just 95 days’ notice.
No teaser rates. No small print. Just transparent savings.
Start saving from as little as £1 — no big barriers to entry.
Get a great rate - without the long-term commitment
