You need to pay at least £2,000 into the account within 10 days of opening it. There is no limit to the number of payments in you can make within these 10 days. After the 10 days are up, you can’t make any further payments into the account. The maximum you can pay into the account is £10,000,000.

You can’t make withdrawals from this account, but you can close the account early by visiting one of our branches with a counter. Bear in mind that if you close the account early, for the one year term account you’ll be charged the equivalent of 90 days’ gross interest. For the two year term account you’ll be charged the equivalent of 180 days’ gross interest. This means you may get back less than you put in.
At the end of the 1 or 2 year term, your account will change to a Standard Saver. Before this happens, we'll contact you to explain your options and next steps.

Savings terms explained
Gross rate means we won’t deduct tax from the interest we pay on money in your account. It’s your responsibility to pay any tax you may owe to HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC).
AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate. Whenever you see an advert for a savings account which shows an interest rate, you will see the AER. This means you can use the AER to compare accounts. It shows what the interest rate would be if your interest was paid and compounded once each year.
