Summary Box

Account name Cash ISA Saver Issue 19
What is the interest rate?
Annual Interest 3.90% tax-free pa/AER
Interest is earned daily and paid on the anniversary of account opening.
Monthly Interest: 3.83% tax-free /3.90% AER
Interest is earned daily and each month's interest is paid on the same date your account was opened or the last day of the month if shorter.
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 £1,039 based on the following assumptions:
  • £1,000 is paid in when the account is opened and interest starts being earned straight away
  • No further deposits or any withdrawals are made
  • The interest is paid annually and added to the account
  • The interest rate stays the same for the full 12 months
Estimated balances are for illustrative purposes only and may be less for accounts opened by debit card or cheque.
How do I open and manage my account?
  • This account is available to UK residents aged 16 or over and can be opened and managed online (cannot currently be opened in the Skipton App), over the phone, by post or in branch.
  • For each means of managing your account you wish to use, you’ll be required to set up appropriate security and access measures.
  • To open and operate the account a valid email address must be provided.
  • You can save from £1 up to your total ISA allowance each tax year (which is £20,000 for the 2023/24 tax year), plus any ISA transfers, up to a maximum of £1 million.
  • You can find information on how to transfer an existing ISA into this account in the Cash ISA Saver key features and account terms and conditions.
  • No joint accounts allowed.
Can I withdraw money?
  • Yes, subject to you setting up the relevant security measures, you can withdraw online, in branch, by phone (if you’ve set up phone access) or by post. You don’t need to give us notice and there are no penalties.
  • This account is flexible, so you can withdraw money and put it back without affecting your ISA allowance, as long as it’s done in the same tax year and the account is still open.
Additional information
  • AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and shows what the interest would be if interest was paid and added each year.
  • All ISA interest is paid tax-free, which means it's exempt from income tax. Tax rules may change in future.
  • Accounts can be withdrawn from sale at any time and without notice.
