*AER stands for annual equivalent rate and illustrates the interest rate if it was paid and compounded once each year.

Your interest rate depends on how many times you take money out in any anniversary year. An anniversary year is the 12 month period commencing on the opening date of your account and then renewing on each annual anniversary. The lower interest rate will apply from the day of your third withdrawal to the day before the anniversary of your account opening. From your anniversary date, your interest rate and withdrawals reset. Interest is calculated daily, and paid monthly or annually. You can choose to have your interest paid to your Double Access Account, any other Personal Savings account you hold with us that allows deposits, or your nominated UK bank or building society account. A payment of interest away from your Double Access Account won’t be classed as a withdrawal.

Yes, the interest rate is variable. We can increase or decrease the rate for any of the reasons set out in our Personal Savings Terms and Conditions.

Number of withdrawals Deposit at Account Opening Balance After 12 Months Interest Earned
No withdrawals £1000 £1045.50 £45.50
No withdrawals £50,000 £52,275.00 £2,275.00
Three withdrawals £1000 £712.83 £12.83
Three withdrawals £50,000 £50,558.38 £858.38

The examples above assume that one lump sum is deposited at account opening, that no further deposits are made and that interest earned is paid to the account annually.

The examples showing three withdrawals assume that withdrawals of £100 are made on the 14th, 21st and 28th day from account opening.

The lower interest rate is applied from the day of the third withdrawal and then applies until the day before the anniversary date of the account being opened.

Double access account FAQs

You simply need to be aged 18 years or over, resident in the UK and only tax resident in the UK. Our accounts cannot be held in trust or by US Persons (meaning US citizens, residents, green card holders or taxpayers in respect of their worldwide income).

You can make deposits by Faster Payments, BACS, CHAPS or Standing Order from your nominated account. You can also make deposits by transfer from an existing Aldermore Personal Savings account in your name or held jointly with someone else (where withdrawals are permitted). Payments to us from any other account will not be accepted and will be returned. We don’t accept deposits by cash, cheque or banker’s draft.

Please don’t send any money until we’ve confirmed that your account is open, as we won’t be able to allocate it to your account and it will be returned.

When your account is open, you can add money to your Double Access Account at any time.

With the Double Access Account, your interest rate depends on how many times you take money out in any anniversary year. You’ll get the benefit of the higher interest rate if you make two or less withdrawals in an anniversary year. If you make three or more withdrawals, the lower interest rate will apply from the day of your third withdrawal to the day before the annual anniversary of your account opening.

Interest can be added to your Aldermore account, paid to any other Personal Savings account you hold with us that allows deposits (Easy Access, Double Access or Notice) or paid to your nominated UK bank or building society account.

You can change the interest payment frequency or destination in internet banking.

There are no fees or charges for standard account services. We may make a charge for any exceptional non-standard services which are made available to you on a discretionary basis.
