What you get


Benefits of the Notice Account

  • Interest paid directly into your account every quarter
  • Only 40 days notice required for withdrawals for Yorkshire Bank accounts
  • £500 minimum deposit to open an account

The 40 Day Notice Account pays interest on the last business day of every quarter and all you need is a minimum deposit of £500. Once it’s open, you can deposit lump sums or make regular payments. Withdrawals transferred via an external account will normally take 3 additional working days but if you have a Yorkshire Bank account, the money can be transferred on the 40th day.

Withdrawals made without giving us 40 days notice will be subject to a charge and must be for the whole balance in the account including any accrued interest. The account must then be closed.

The charge will be equivalent to 40 days gross interest (which would have been earned on the balance on the Account on the withdrawal date) or a minimum charge of £30, whichever is greater.

Other savings accounts

For your security, calls may be monitored or recorded.

Interest is calculated daily and paid to the account quarterly.

*Gross Rate interest is the interest payable without taking account of the deduction of income tax. For most customers tax will be deducted at the lower rate prevailing at the time of payment (currently 20%).

**AER Annual Equivalent Rate illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and compounded once each year. If your deposit is for 12 months or more it illustrates what the interest rate is on your deposit each year.

Rates are subject to change but are correct as at 31st October 2008.
