How do I open and manage my account?
Business Saver customers who are 18 or over and a UK resident can open an account online.
You will need:
- The mobile phone number and email address for all signatories on the account
- Details of a UK business current account in your same business name. This will be your 'nominated account' - all deposits must come from this account and all withdrawals will be paid to this account.
The minimum initial deposit is £1 and you can deposit up to £10 million in this account.
It’s important we receive your initial deposit within 14 days from opening the account online.
You can only use Online Banking to manage your account and make withdrawals.
For added security, when you use Online Banking, you’ll need to download and register our Authenticator App (available for free on Google Play or the Apple App Store) or request a Digipass®.
You will need access to the Authenticator App or Digipass every time you login and make any actions on your account. This added security step helps us know that it is you making the transaction so we can keep your account safe.
For more information about Authentication and guidance help, please see our guidance pages here.
You may contact us by Secure Message via Online Banking, by telephone or in writing using the address or other contact details we have given you or which appear on our website. Please note we are unable to take transaction requests through these channels.
Can I withdraw money?
You can make unlimited requests to withdraw your money at any time.
You won't be charged a fee for withdrawals.
All withdrawals under £50k will be paid into your nominated account using Faster Payments. Payments over £50k will be sent via CHAPS.
Withdrawals over £50k made before 3.30pm on a working day will arrive in your nominated account by the end of the next working day. Withdrawals over £50k made after 3.30pm or at the weekend will arrive no later than the end of the 2nd working day.
Additional Information
Interest will be paid without deduction of tax. You will need to deduct tax yourself by declaring it as part of your annual tax return.
AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and compounded once each year. Gross interest is the contractual rate of interest.
We may periodically launch new savings product issues which are given designated issue numbers. Individual product issues each have their own interest rate, these may vary from the prior/proceeding issues; either upwards or downwards.
Customers should check our website or Online Banking to see the latest available issue and if you wish to open a new product issue / savings then you can apply through our website or Online Banking.
We publish all current and historic issue interest rates on our website (https://www.cynergybank.co.uk/rates/) and within Online Banking if you hold one of our existing products.
