On maturity, if a new bond is available, we’ll offer you the new bond when this one matures.

We’ll send you in advance the details of the new bond, including its interest rate, and the terms and conditions. The details will also include the term which will always be either the same or shorter than your existing bond. The interest payment frequency will be the same as your existing bond.

If no bond is available, we’ll offer you an Instant Access savings account. This type of account lets you access your money whenever you wish. We’ll send you in advance the details of the account, including the interest rate and terms and conditions.

If you want to accept the offer we make to you, you don’t need to do anything. We will open the new bond, and transfer the money, plus interest into it on the first working day after your existing bond matures.

If you don’t want to accept our offer, please let us know before your bond matures and we’ll send the money to you on maturity. You can let us know by signing and returning the instruction form we send to you with your maturity letter, by contacting us by secure message through Harpenden Online or by calling us directly.

Additional information This account has limited availability, and the Society reserves the right to withdraw it without notice at any time.

Interest is paid gross without tax deducted. Some savers may be required to pay tax on their savings interest - this should be arranged directly with HMRC through your tax return.

Your tax treatment will depend on your individual circumstances and may be subject to change in the future. The Society reserves the right to withdraw this product without notice at any time.

We will contact you prior to your account maturity and outline your options regarding your Bond account.

* The gross rate is the rate before deducting tax at the rate applicable to savings income. The annual equivalent rate (AER) is a notional rate which illustrates what the gross interest rate would be if the interest was paid and added to the account annually.
