If you’re paid your interest annually you’ll receive it on the first Business Day^ after each anniversary
If you’re paid your interest monthly you’ll receive it on the first Business Day^ of the following month. So, for example, you’d get January’s interest on the first Business Day^ in February.
Where can my interest be paid to?
Annual interest can either be paid into this account or another account of your choice (either with us or another provider).
Monthly interest will be paid to another account of your choice (either with us or another provider) but your final month’s payment will be added to this account.

On or after this date you may be offered a lower rate. However, if we increase the rate on the Maturity Britannia Fixed Rate Bond you have chosen between your letter being sent and your maturity date, you will automatically receive the higher rate.

If you have been offered higher rates in your maturity pack, we promise to honour those rates as long as we receive your reinvestment instructions before your maturity date. If more than one month has passed since your Britannia Fixed Rate Bond matured, you cannot reinvest in a Maturity Britannia Fixed Rate Bond. However, you may be able to apply for a Britannia Fixed Rate Bond. Customers must provide their instructions to reinvest within a month of maturity if they wish to reinvest into a Maturity Britannia Fixed Rate Bond.
To reinvest, you need to be:
