These rates are variable and correct as at 1st February 2012 - Gross /AER assumes that the deposit was made on 1st February 2012.
 
Annual or monthly interest can be chosen at account opening. Once chosen it cannot be altered at a later date.
 
Please note that the tier of interest above that is applicable to the balance of your account, is applied to the total balance until 30th November 2012. From 1st December 2012 you will receive the variable rate applicable to the balances from £1 on all the money in your account.
 
AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and shows what the interest rate would be if we paid interest and added it to your account each year. The gross rate is the interest rate we pay before income tax is taken off.
