How is interest calculated?

Please refer to section 7 of the Savings Accounts General Terms and Conditions for further information on how we calculate interest.

Details of our full range of products and current interest rates are available on request at our branches, by telephone 01257 235003 or from our website www.chorleybs.co.uk/savings

Interest Rate Definitions

  1. AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and added to the account once each year.
  2. Gross – The gross rate of interest is the interest rate payable before any income tax is deducted (if you do pay tax).

Can Chorley Building Society change the interest rate? 

This account has a variable rate of interest and is subject to change; this means we may increase or decrease interest rates at any time. If we make a material reduction to the interest rate, the reduced rate will be applied to the account after 14 days plus the account notice period (or 30 days if longer than the notice period) During this time, the notice period for making withdrawals from your account (or closing your account) will continue to apply. Please refer to section 7 of the Savings Account General Terms and Conditions for further information on how and why we might change the interest rate.

What would the estimated balance be after 12 months

based on a £1,000 initial deposit? 

Based on the lower rate of interest, if you deposited £1,000 in this account, after 12 months your estimated balance would be £1,035.00.

This projection is for illustration purposes only and does not take into account your individual circumstances. The projection is based on no additional deposits, withdrawals or changes in the interest rate within the 12 month period.
