For when choosing the right account gets too tough.
An account which pays at least the Bank of England Base Rate, plus an annual bonus up to 18 August 2011. But you'll need to give us 45 days notice of withdrawals.
If the Bank of England Base Rate changes before this date, we will change the interest rate on the account where necessary (which could be up or down) within 30 days.
† If a withdrawal is made without notice an equivalent of 45 days' loss of interest on the amount withdrawn will be applied. If the interest accrued on the date of withdrawal is insufficient to meet the loss of interest, this will be deducted from the account balance. This means that you would not get back the original money deposited. Please bear this in mind when requesting or making a withdrawal without prior notice.
The product terms should be read with the Standard Terms and Conditions (Standard Terms). Together the Product Terms and Standard Terms explain how your account works.
It is important that you read all the terms applicable before you decide whether to open this account.
