Equivalent annual gross yield to basic-rate


We still pay a full 1% over the variable rate for ordinary shares to give a net 9.75% but, unlike some other societies, the interest is added every six months. If you leave the interest in 'th e account the equivalent annual gross yield to basic-rate taxpayers'is 14.27%. To invest, you only need £500.


Now better than ever-easier withdrawals. Either one month’s notice-with full interest


or immediate withdrawal with only one month’s loss of interest on the amount you withdraw.
