Can Hinckley & Rugby Building Society change the interest rate?

This product tracks the Bank of England Base Rate. The rate at which we track the Bank of England Base Rate will be reviewed twice annually, with any changes applied 1 April and 1 November. However, we may change interest rates at anytime if we reasonably believe that the change is needed, for any reasons outlined in the Savings Terms and Conditions booklet, Condition 7.

What would the estimated balance be after 12 months?

Based on an initial deposit of £1,000.00, after a 12 month period the estimated balance would be £1,040.00.

These figures are provided for illustrative purposes only and assume that no further deposits or withdrawals are made and there is no change in interest rate. They do not take into account your individual circumstances.

Money can be paid out against a cheque from the start of the sixth business day following the day of deposit. Business day means a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or Bank Holiday. Funds are available for immediate withdrawal for all other types of deposit.

Additional information

Personal Savings Allowance is the amount of interest you can earn before paying tax on it. If you are a basic taxpayer, you can earn up to £1,000.00 interest without paying tax. If you are a higher rate taxpayer, you can earn up to £500.00 interest without paying tax. If you are a additional rate taxpayer, you cannot earn any interest without paying tax.

If you have savings income over your Personal Savings Allowance, you are responsible for making sure you are paying the correct tax directly to HM Revenue & Customs.
