Accounts for those who prefer to manage their money online. Check your balance, view your statements and make transfers online to your Nominated Accounts.

In the event that the balance falls below the minimum operating balance as stated within the relevant product details below, the basic savings rate of interest, which is currently 0.05% Gross ‡ p.a/ AER† (variable) for non-ISA accounts and 0.05% Tax-Free§ p.a. / AER† (variable) for ISA accounts, shall apply. The ISA accounts are not Flexible Cash ISAs meaning any amount withdrawn cannot be replaced and will count towards your yearly ISA limit.
