Account Name
Vanquis Bank Savings - Easy Access Account (Issue 3)
What is the interest rate?
Annual Gross*/AER**

4.75 % (Variable)

This rate is based on interest being paid on either

  • the anniversary of the date we received your first payment into your account; or
  • on the day your account closes, if earlier
Monthly Gross*/ AER**

4.65 % or 4.75 % (Variable)

This rate is based on interest being paid each month on:

  • the monthly anniversary of us receiving your first payment into your account; and
  • the date your account closes
Interest is calculated daily. When you open the account you will be able to choose whether you would like interest to be paid each month or annually. You will also be able to choose whether you would like interest to be paid into your account or transferred to your nominated account.
Can Vanquis Bank Savings change the interest rate?
Yes. The interest rate is variable which means we can change it from time to time, e.g. if the Bank of England base rate changes.

    Explanation of key interest rate terms

    * 'Gross' interest is the contractual rate of interest.

    **'AER' stands for the Annual Equivalent Rate, a notional rate which illustrates what the interest rate would be if paid and compounded on an annual basis

    These easy access accounts are a limited offer and may be withdrawn at any time. The interest rates we offer will vary from time to time, so it is important to keep a regular eye on the wider market because better rates may be available elsewhere.
