Fixed Rate Bonds FAQs
Find out more information on your savings account maturity options here
A fixed rate bond is a type of savings account that gives you a set rate of interest for a chosen length of time, for example, you could choose to save into a 2-year fixed bond.
You won’t be able to withdraw your money during your fixed term, and in exchange for this certainty you’ll typically get a higher rate of interest than you might with an instant access savings account.
There’s no limit to how many fixed rate bonds you can have.
You won’t be able to make additional deposits into your fixed bond after the funding window has closed. You can open another fixed rate bond account if you want to add to your savings.
Whether you choose to save into a fixed rate bond is completely up to you. Some of the benefits include:
- A fixed rate of interest
- You can choose the set term
- You’ll know exactly how much interest you’ll receive at the end of your term
- No withdrawals makes it a good option for your long-term savings goals
No. Once you’ve opened a fixed rate bond, you have 10 working days to deposit your money.
After those 10 working days, you can’t add more money to that account. If you want to save more, then you could open another bond.
Yes, all TSB savings accounts are protected by the FSCS.
Important Information
*How do Bonds work?
You need to be aged 16+ to open a Fixed Rate Bond
Deposits must be received within 10 working days of opening your account (minimum £1).
Once Bonds are opened no withdrawals are allowed.
You can have more than one Fixed Rate Bond.
Your interest can be paid annually or monthly.
Your savings will automatically move into a TSB Matured Funds account at maturity, unless you tell us you'd like to do something different with your money. Your account number and sort code will not change. Statements are issued annually upon anniversary of the account opening.
The Annual Equivalent Rate (AER) shows what the interest would be if the interest was paid and added to the account once each year. It lets you compare savings accounts easily. Gross rate is the contractual rate of interest payable before the deduction of income tax.
You need to be 16+ and UK resident to open most of our savings accounts with the exception of Savings Pots and TSB ISAs. For children under 16 please see specific pages for opening procedures.
