Cash Extra

Branch exclusive!


At The Nottingham, we know you want to get the most from your savings. So this year we’re bringing you the opportunity to double your savings power when you invest in a tax-free† ISA.

Cash Extra is a special account which is linked to our Cash ISA. Cash Extra is only available to customers who subscribe to a Cash ISA with The Nottingham in the 2009/10 tax year.

You’ll pay tax on the interest on your Cash Extra account (if you’re a tax-payer), but the after tax rate on the account will match your tax-free Cash ISA rate. So, you can save the same amount in your Cash ISA and your linked account, and earn the same rate on your money.

This is a great opportunity to make your money work harder – you could even use your Cash Extra account to save for next year’s ISA allowance.

When you open a Cash Extra account with your Cash ISA you can double your ISA savings power. This is because your Cash Extra account:

  • Has the same limit on the amount you can invest as your Cash ISA, so you’re effectively doubling your ISA allowance
  • Let’s you match every £1 you pay into your ISA, with £1 in your Cash Extra account, and you don’t have to pay this in at the same time
  • Has after-tax interest rates that match the rate on your Cash ISA – so you get the same rate twice too.

Your Cash Extra account also:
  • Gives you instant access to your money whenever you need it
  • Let’s you make unlimited withdrawals and deposits as long as you don’t go below the £10 minimum, exceed the maximum or pay in more than you have paid into your Cash ISA in the 2009/10 tax year.

How much interest will I earn?
Your Cash ISA interest will be tax-free however, you will pay tax on the interest on your Cash Extra account (if you are a tax-payer).

We’ll pay your interest straight into your Cash Extra account on 5 April 2010, and we’ll send you a statement in April 2010 telling you how much interest you’ve earned. We’ll also tell you the rates that have applied to your account over the last year and the current rate of interest. You can get up-to-the-minute rate information 24 hours a day by calling our rateline on 0845 795 9666 or visiting our website.
Other important information about your Cash Extra account
  • If your Cash ISA is transferred or closed, you must do the same with your Cash Extra account.
  • On 6 April 2010 the Cash Extra account will be automatically transferred to a Branch Moneybuilder account or the nearest equivalent if this account isn’t available. It can also be transferred to an ISA but you’ll need to let us know if you’d like this to happen.
  • Cash Extra is available to new and existing customers, and you must be aged 16 or over.
  • Only one Cash Extra account is allowed per customer.
