Summary Box

Account name 120 Day Notice Saver Issue 14
What is the interest rate?
Annual Interest

3.60% gross pa/AER

  • This account earns interest daily. If you choose annual interest, it’s added to the account the day before the anniversary of account opening.
  • If you ask us to pay interest to a different account, we’ll pay it on the first business day after the day we’d have added it to this account. Business days exclude Saturday, Sunday and bank holidays.
Monthly Interest: No monthly interest option available.
Can Skipton Building Society change the interest rate?
  • Yes, the interest rate is variable, so it can go up or down.
  • Section 8 of our Savings Account Terms and Conditions explains why we may change the interest rate.
  • If you have at least £100 in your account, we'll notify you in advance if we intend to reduce your interest rate.
What would the estimated balance be after 12 months based on a £1,000 deposit?
  • The estimated balance after 12 months would be £1,036, assuming that:
    • the account is opened with £1,000 and starts earning interest straight away
    • no further deposits or withdrawals are made
    • the interest is paid annually
    • the interest is added to this account
    • there is no change to the interest rates stated.
  • Estimated balances are for illustrative purposes only. They may be less for accounts opened by debit card or cheque, because interest won’t be earned until your account receives the deposit.
How do I open and manage my account?
  • This account is available to UK residents aged 16 or over.
  • You can open and manage it in branch, by post or phone (a valid email address is required when opening by phone).
  • The minimum opening and operating balance for this account is £1. You must keep at least this amount in the account at all times.
  • Subsequent payments in can be made from £1.
  • The maximum balance for this account is £1 million.
  • Joint accounts are allowed.
Can I withdraw money?
  • Yes, as long as you give us 120 days’ notice in branch, by post or phone (if you’ve set up phone access), subject to the minimum operating balance. If the notice period cannot be met, you’ll have to pay 120 days’ worth of interest on the amount you withdraw, so you might get back less than you paid in. The minimum withdrawal amount is £1.
  • Once the 120 days’ notice period has ended, there is a limited window during which you can then make the withdrawal you gave notice for without penalty. We’ll provide you with details when you give withdrawal notice to us.
  • You can only have one notice period running at a time.
  • If you withdraw by electronic payment this must be made to a UK bank or building society account in your own name(s). We won’t make an electronic payment to any other type of account.
Additional information
  • The AER shows what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and added each year.
  • We pay all savings interest gross, which means no tax is deducted. It’s your responsibility to pay any tax due, based on your individual circumstances. Tax rules may change in future.
  • Accounts can be withdrawn from sale at any time and without notice.
