10 per cent savings account from Halifax
Halifax has today launched a new 10 per cent Regular Saver Account . You can take advantage of this market leading rate without the need to have a Halifax Current Account.
The maximum monthly deposit limit is £500 and an additional 2 per cent interest rate is available if you deposit and maintain a further £5,000 in a nominated Halifax savings account. This takes the interest rate to a fantastic 12 per cent AER.
Don’t delay! This new savings account is only available for 6 weeks from Monday 9th June until Saturday 20th July 2008 - here are the key features;
- 10% gross interest, fixed for a year
- Open to new and existing customers, one account per adult. Account available for a limited period ending 20th July
- 2008. One regular saver account per customer, per year.
- Deposit between £25 and £500 each month by standing order
- If the account is closed early or a withdrawal is made, the rate of interest will revert to the Halifax Web Saver without card rate for the period of investment.
- Each year the capital and interest are swept into one of six nominated accounts. The regular saver account remains open and deposits can continue to be made
- Operated via branch or online
- Unlike some other banks, customers are not obliged to take a low interest current account in order to open the regular saver account.
Head of savings at Halifax, Tony Wilcox, said: “This is the market leading regular savings account. It is now even more attractive for savers to establish that all important regular savings habit.”
