We've just launched a limited issue† Fixed Rate Bond. Our limited issue† Fixed Rate Bonds provide you with a guaranteed rate for a fixed period of time, giving you the peace of mind of knowing exactly what return you will receive and that your capital is secure.
Please be aware that once invested in this Bond doesn't permit access to your funds before the 31 October 2012.
To open a Fixed Rate Bond, you must be aged 16 or over and must be a UK resident. An account can be held in your sole name, or jointly with one other eligible individual.
There are various ways to pay money into your Bond while it is still open to new investors:
Branch or Agency – cash or cheques can be deposited at any of our branches or agencies. To find your local branch click here.
Bankers Automated Clearing Service (BACS) – transfer money directly to your Bond from another account.
Faster Payments – We accept faster payments into our sort codes from UK banks offering an outward faster payment service to their customers. Standing orders, internet and telephone banking payments can be sent using this service, subject to payment limits.
For details of our sort code for UK or abroad BACS payments view our manage your accounts page.
