Online accounts

Our Online ISA can only be opened and operated via the internet.

We do sometimes allow online applications for branch and postal accounts, but this is for account opening only, and you are not able to operate these accounts online.

For all accounts, please read the following:

What if I change my mind?

From the date of account opening you have 14 days to notify us (in writing) if you are not happy with your choice of account. Please write to:

Investment Services,
105 Albion Street,
Leeds
LS1 5AS.

Within that period we will, if instructed by you, refund your investment with interest from account opening, or subject to eligibility, transfer the investment to another account of your choice without any penalty for early withdrawal.

What about income tax?

The gross rate(s) of interest shown will be payable net of the appropriate rate of income tax (which may be reclaimed by nontaxpayers) or, subject to the required certification, gross.

What if I have a complaint?

We aim to provide a high quality service to customers at all times. Unfortunately mistakes do occur, but when this happens we shall do our best to resolve problems or misunderstandings which arise. Should you need to refer a matter of complaint to us, details of the procedure are available from your local branch or our Customer Helpline. Ultimately, your complaint may be referred to the Financial Ombudsman Service.

I have read and printed the General Investment Conditions, the Account's Key Features and Terms and Conditions and would like to proceed.
