1 Year Fixed Rate ISA - 3.20 % AER @ The Post Office


-4°

FOUND BY: ses6jwg 1 month, 16 minutes ago

Pretty good deal I thought considering I have just opened a 2 year @ 3.15% with LEEDS BS

1 year fixed term
a guaranteed tax-free rate of 3.20% AER1 fixed
minimum deposit of £500 and a maximum of £3,600^
open with a lump sum deposit or a transfer of a cash ISA held with another provider
you need to be over 16 years old and a UK resident

Please note provided by Bank of Ireland so comes under their compensation scheme.

Also as its post office easy to open an account unlike some tiny building society at the other end of the country!

They also some decent NON-ISA bonds at 3.7% 1 year and 4.25% 2 year.

Not a bad rate for such a relatively low minimum deposit. Bear in mind, though, that the Post Office Bank is actually just a trading name for the Bank of Ireland. As such, protection for your savings is backed by the Republic of Ireland government, rather than the UK government and is dependent solely upon the Republic's solvency; see http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/savings/safe-savings.

Yep, I'm aware a couple of places do a slightly better rate, but generally EVERYWHERE has a post office so easy to open etc.

Northern Rock is probably a better deal if you have one locally though (unlike me).

Yes its backed by BoI so sometjing to be aware of

Please dont put this code in, support your own local post office. Each post office has there own code, found at the back of leaflet at your local, or ask your own post office what there code is.
