Summary Box
Account name: Premium Saver
No withdrawals made in month: bonus condition is met
Interest is paid on a tiered basis which means you’ll earn one rate on your entire account balance. If, for example, you hold £150,000 in your account and you have satisfied the bonus condition, your interest rate for that monthly bonus period will be 0.85% AER/Gross p.a. on your entire account balance.You can find details of the bonus condition in the Additional Information section.Interest is calculated daily and paid on the first business day of the month and at account closure.
Can NatWest change the interest rate?
Yes, these rates are variable. They may be changed for any of the reasons set out in General Term 9.2 of the Savings Account Terms (PDF, 281 KB), e.g. to take account of Bank of England base rate changes or changes in the rates paid by other banks. If the rates are going down we’ll give you at least 60 days’ notice. If they are going up, we’ll inform you before the change or shortly afterwards. Term 9.2 (PDF, 281 KB) contains details of the notice we’ll give you.
What would the estimated balance be after 12 months based on a range of deposits?
One withdrawal of £50 made each month: bonus condition is not met for the whole year
