Following the Bank of England’s decision to raise the base rate of interest by 0.25% to 5.25% on August 3rd, we have reviewed our savings rates and will be increasing the majority of our variable rate savings accounts by up to 0.30%. These changes will come into effect as of Friday, 18th August.

The Newcastle Base Rate Tracker (Issue 1) rate was updated on Thursday 10th August in line with the product special terms and conditions.

To view your new rate, please see our full list of variable rate savings products and interest rates.
