4.70 AER/Gross

AER is the Annual Equivalent Rate and represents what the interest rate would be if interest was realised and paid once each year.

Interest is calculated daily, compounded annually and is payable on maturity. Interest will be paid gross without prior deduction of tax.

The interest rate applicable to your savings account is fixed once your application is approved and you fund your account. The rate will stay the same throughout the duration of the fixed term. Should the bank amend the rate advertised before you have fully transferred funds and the rate is lower than the rate you originally ordered, you will have 14 days to cancel your application, and your original deposit amount will be returned to your Transaction Account. We will contact you if this occurs.

The estimated balance after 36 months on a deposit of £1000 is £1,147.73. This projection is for illustrative purposes only and does not take into account individual circumstances.

Because this savings account is a fixed term deposit, withdrawals are not permitted before the maturity date, except in any exceptional circumstances agreed to by RCI Bank in its absolute discretion. This savings account does NOT operate on the basis that you can end the fixed term of your savings account prematurely and pay a fee to withdraw your funds sooner.

Transfers of funds must be received within 60 calendar days (the funding window) of your savings account application date. Any funds received after this period will be held in your Raisin Account, awaiting your instruction.

Funds must be transferred to your Raisin Account from a UK bank or building society account in your name by electronic bank transfer only, and to the exact amount pledged when you applied for the savings account.

Typically, your funds will be remitted to RCI Bank by ClearBank once the bank has confirmed your application. Depending on how your funds are transferred and the bank’s processes it can typically take up to 2 days for an ordered account to be set up and start earning interest.
