A new issue of the Alliance & Leicester Online Saver has been launched, it has been revealed.
Those on the search for
online savings accounts may be interested in the release of a new Alliance & Leicester
Savings Account, it has emerged.
Launched today (July 3rd), the
Alliance & Leicester Online Saver Issue 5 can be opened from a minimum balance of just £1.
Although an overall interest rate of 3.15 per cent will be offered regardless of the size of balance, individual underlying and bonus rates are tiered.
For example, those with a balance of under £25,000 will receive an underlying rate of 0.5 per cent and a bonus rate of 2.65 per cent.
Meanwhile, those saving £250,000 benefit from a 1.65 per cent bonus and an underlying rate of return of 1.50 per cent.
Commenting on the market-leading 3.15 per cent product, Reza Attar-Zadeh, director of savings and investments for Santander, states: "This is a fantastic rate for an easy access account and with access via the internet 365 days a year it really couldn't be easier."
Earlier this week, it was revealed that
Sainsbury's Internet Saver accounts will benefit from a 2.05 per cent bonus rate above the saving account's standard rate of 0.75 per cent.
