Save now, relax in December

Plan ahead with our 6 Month Regular Saver and enjoy this Christmas.

A young couple in love is lying on the sofa in their living room, enjoying watching a movie and drinking tea.

Why save for Christmas now? 

We know what you're thinking. You've not even had your summer holiday yet. We're nowhere near dusting off the Halloween decorations.

So why are we talking about Christmas already?

It's simple really. Wouldn't it be nice to get to December with the cost of Christmas already planned for?


Plan ahead for the cost of Christmas

Christmas time is about so much more than expensive presents and costly feasts. It's about spending quality time with the people you love. Indulging in your favourite foods and films. Taking a breather to reflect on your year.

But let's be honest; it can get expensive. And that stress can get in the way of enjoying the moments that matter.

We should all be able to enjoy the festive season without money weighing on our minds. So why not open a 6 Month Regular Saver account now and set aside some savings each month?

Having a savings pot and regularly saving for six months could give you some peace of mind when December comes.  

Leaving you to focus on making memories - not worrying about your bank balance.

This is based on: 

  • You paying in £200 a month for 6 months. 
  • You making the first payment on the date the account was opened.

This calculation is for guidance only, to show you what a future balance could look like. It does not consider your individual circumstances. 

  • You must be 16 or over and be a UK resident (see your 6 Month Regular Saver account terms). 
  • This can be a joint account, but you can’t have more than one of this issue number of the Regular Saver Bond in your name. 
  • You can open the account in branch, at an agency or online. 
  • You must keep at least £1 (the minimum balance) in the account. 
  • The most you can pay in each calendar month is £200, in one or more payments. 
  • You do not have to make payments into the account every month. 
  • If your bond reaches £1,200, you cannot pay any more money in. 
  • The bond will mature 6 months after the date it opened. 
  • You can manage the account in branch, at an agency, by post, or by using a secure online profile with Principality.

  • No, you cannot make any withdrawals from your bond before it matures. 
  • You can close your bond before it matures. Any interest you’ve earned will be added to the account balance and paid to you. 
  • We will write to you before your bond matures to find out what you want to do with your money. 
  • If we don’t receive any instructions from you before your bond matures, we will move your money to our Instant Access Account or the nearest equivalent we offer at the time. 

Service charges and costs may apply to your bond. These are set out in our Tariff of Charges. 

If the total amount of interest you earn is more than your tax-free Personal Savings Allowance, you may have to pay tax directly to HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC). For more information, visit gov.uk
