The 'gross rate' is the contractual rate of interest payable before the deduction of income tax at the rate specified by law.

The 'net rate' is the rate of interest which would be payable after allowing for the deduction of income tax at the specified rate.

The 'AER' stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest rate would be if it was paid and compounded once each year.

Details Summary

  • Interest is calculated as at 31 December each year. It can either be paid back to this account where it will earn even more interest, direct to another Cheshire investment account or to your bank/building society.
  • Cheque deposits will earn interest after 4 working days from the date the Society receives it. Standing order deposits earn interest from the date of funds transfer.
  • Instant access to your money - You can withdraw up to £500 cash or larger amounts by cheque at any Cheshire branch.
  • Easy Saver has seven interest rate tiers in total that are dependent upon the balance held at any given time. In addition, it also has four interest rate bands for each tier that are dependent upon the amount of withdrawals taken in the calendar year.
  • The payment of monthly interest alone does not count as a withdrawal.
  • On January 1 each year the account is set back to nil withdrawals so you will start the year with the highest interest rate available for your particular balance.
