Regular monthly payments of the same amount each month must be made into this account. These can be made by cash, cheque or standing order. If a payment is not made within any calendar month, then the account will receive 0.1% gross interest for the entire period (from the date of account opening).

Your first payment must be made by cheque. We will then send you a form for you to send to your bank so they can set up the subsequent payments by standing order.

The ISA limit is £10,200 per tax year of which up to £5,100 can be invested in a cash ISA in the current tax year. The remainder can be invested in a stocks and shares ISA with the same or another provider.

You must be 16 years of age or over to invest in a cash ISA. You may only pay into one cash ISA per tax year.

The account allows the facility to make 1 penalty free withdrawal per tax year (6 April – 5 April). If 2 or more withdrawals are made, then the account will receive 0.1% gross interest for the entire period.

Transfers are not permitted into this account. You may transfer your cash ISA to another ISA manager provided you make your request in writing.

The account can only be opened by UK resident individuals (not companies, charities, clubs, etc.) in single names only.

INTEREST RATES

Interest will be credited annually at 31st December either into the account or to another bank/building society account.

The interest rate is variable and we may change it at any time.

For example if you saved £425 each month, this would lead to gross interest of £52.41 at the end of a 12 month period, provided the interest rate does not change in that 12 month period.

Interest on this account will be paid gross providing that the ISA regulations have been fulfilled. Interest from this cash ISA will not have to be entered on your tax return.
