Branch Regular Saver (TAR04)

Branch Regular Saver

Interest is variable, calculated on a daily basis and is paid annually on 31 August

†Annual Equivalent Rate illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and added each year, and has been rounded to two decimal places.

As the interest rate is variable, we may change the rate if we reasonably believe that the change is needed. If we reduce the interest on your account, we will write to you 14 days before we make the change. For full details on how and why we will change the interest rate on your account, please refer to Section 8 of the Savings Terms and Conditions.

Based on the current interest rate, if you deposited £1,000 in this account, after 12 months you would have £1,021.00. This figure is for illustration purposes and is based on no additional deposits, withdrawals or changes in interest rates within the 12 month period.

To open an account you must be permanently resident in the UK. Simply call into your local branch and complete an application form. You will need to provide some identification when you open your account, details of our requirements can be obtained from the “before you apply section” on this page, your local branch or by calling 01782 255000.

If you are already a Hanley Economic customer, in most cases, this will not be necessary. When you open your account you will receive a passbook.

You can open the account with a minimum investment is £20 – maximum investment is £50,000 if held in single or joint names. A subscription of between £20 and £500 if held in single or joint names should be received each calendar month and you can vary the amount you wish to save. You can make more than one subscription per month providing the maximum subscription is not exceeded. You can make subscriptions by one, or a combination of, the following ways:

• Branch visit
• Post
• Internal transfer from an existing Hanley account
• Bank transfer
• Standing order

If no subscriptions are made for 3 consecutive months or if 3 or more monthly subscriptions are missed throughout the Society year (1 September – 31 August) the Society, after giving you 60 days notice of our intention to do so, reserves the right to close the account and either return the balance or transfer it to an Instant Access Account.

Once the account has been opened, it can be managed either in branch and/or via the post.
