How do I open and manage my account?
Eligibility
 

This account is only available to UK residents aged 18 or above.

 
Opening the account

You can open an account using our Online Services, in branch or by downloading an application form from our website and emailing or posting it to us. From the date the account is opened, you have 14 days in which to change your mind and close it without notice or penalty.

 
Managing the account

You can operate your account in branch or through our Online Services.

A minimum deposit of £5,000 is required to open the account.

You may make deposits up to the maximum Cash ISA subscription (£20,000 in the 2024/2025 tax year and the currently set level of £20,000 for the 2025/2026 tax year). Subject to this, additional funds may be added up to 14 days after the opening date of the account. Transfers into this ISA are not accepted.

Deposits can be made by cash, cheque, or bank transfer.

Can I withdraw money?

This account does not allow withdrawals. It can only be closed or transferred and will be subject to a 180-day interest penalty. This will be deducted from the accrued interest, and where there is insufficient accrued interest, it will be deducted from your account balance. Therefore, you may get back less than what you put in.

Closures or transfers from the account can be made in branch or through our Online Services.

Closures in branch are made by cheque or Faster Payment. Closures through Online Services are made by Faster Payment directly to your nominated bank account or to another Vernon Building Society account in your name.

 
Maturity

In the month of maturity, we will send you a Maturity Schedule outlining the options available at that time. If you wish to withdraw funds at term-end, you will need to complete this form and return it to the Society. On the date of maturity, unless you tell us otherwise, your investment will automatically transfer to a new 1 Year Fixed-Rate ISA. You will have 14 days to change your mind.

Please also refer to section 12 of the Terms & Conditions for Savers brochure for further information.
