Yes. Interest rates are variable and can be increased or decreased at any time at our sole discretion as outlined in clause 1 of our Specific Terms and Conditions – Notice Accounts.

If we increase your interest rate, we will notify you within 30 calendar days of the increase and apply the change immediately. If we decrease your interest rate, we will notify you at least 14 calendar days in addition to the notice period as per the type of account opened, prior to the decrease.

These examples assume that no further deposits or withdrawals are made, that the interest is accrued daily and applied to the account monthly, that any interest earned stays in the account, and that there is no change to the interest rate.

The maximum amount (excluding the interest) that you will be allowed to hold on deposit with us across multiple accounts is also £500,000. For a joint Account (joint accounts can only be opened through our online application on the website and not through the mobile app) this means that the maximum amount allowed to be held would be £1,000,000 i.e. £500,000 per Account holder.
