*AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and added to the account each year. Withdrawals may affect the AER
If you make a withdrawal without notice and interest accrued as on date of withdrawal in your account is insufficient to meet the penalty, then this will be deducted from the account balance. This means that you would not get back the original moneys deposited. Please bear this in mind when requesting or making a withdrawal without prior notice.
**Each tax year starts on 6 April in one year and ends on 5 April in the next. For example, the tax year 2009/2010 is the period 6 April 2009 to 5 April 2010.
