* Gross is the contractual rate of interest payable before the deduction of income tax at the rate specified by law.

~ Tax free means the interest you earn is exempt from UK Income Tax and Capital Gains Tax.

† AER – Annual Equivalent Rate. This illustrates what the interest would be if interest was paid and added each year. As every advert for a savings product that quotes an interest rate shows the AER, it's an easy way to compare the returns you can expect from different products.

†† The interest rate paid will revert to the  Instant Access Savings Account (or its equivalent) rate if the account balance falls below the minimum initial investment or customers miss a payment during the 12 month period following account opening or make a monthly payment of under £20 or in excess of £1000.

# Net is the rate of interest payable after the deduction of income tax at the rate specified by law.
