Useful to Know
As this is a Fixed Rate ISA, you cannot withdraw your money during the agreed term. If you do choose to withdraw your money then you incur an Early Closure Charge. They offer both one year and two year terms so be sure to pick one that’s right for you. Also:
Natwest is one of the few banks that offer a Fixed Rate of ISA for one year with many offering a two year minimum and some up to five year minimums. For many people this time frame isn’t convenient and so Natwest are offering an easy way for savers to take the plunge and begin their savings. As Natwest is part of The Royal Bank of Scotland group, you will find that they offer the same accounts and rates.
However, they do not currently offer the highest rate of interest on the market.
Frequently Asked Questions
Am I committed to one ISA provider forever?
No. You can switch providers with an ISA transfer if you wish. You can also contribute to other ISA providers in separate tax years.
Can I have a Joint ISA?
No, ISA stands for Individual Savings Account and must be solely owned for tax purposes.
Are ISA accounts safe?
ISA accounts are authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). This means that all ISA providers are covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) for up to £85,000 if they go out of business.
Please note that this may not apply to the underlying holdings within a Stocks and Shares ISA, and will not cover standard investment losses.
Can I transfer my Cash ISA into a Stocks and Shares ISA?
Yes, you can transfer from your Cash ISA to a Stocks and Shares ISA at any time. However, do check you won’t lose out by transferring, as some Fixed Rate Cash ISAs may charge a fee or void your interest if you surrender your policy before the fixed term has ended
