Secure Trust Bank 2.2% 8 July 2018

buffman

Secure Trust Bank's new 2 year fixed rate bond paying 2.2% may be a way to protect some cash against falling interest rates.

never heard of them

anyone ever dealt with them?

I've had several fixed rate bonds with Secure Trust Bank over the years and am happy with the service received and would recommend.

Secure Trust Bank is covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme: https://www.securetrustbank.com/fscs

My 5 year Bond with Newcastle Building Society matrues tomorrow. 5 years of 4.2% interest now I am thrilled to get 2.2% for a couple of years. How times have changed.

I assume you've already filled the 5% and 3% accounts?

Yes we have 7 Regular Saving Accounts, 5 TSB Accounts, Santander 123 Account, 2 BOS Accounts. As the Newcastle have not transferred the money to our account as arranged I am now going to give them grief!:mad:Having given them grief, I was informed that as they are a Building Society the funds take two days to transfer, so we will get them tomorrow.

I applied for the 2 yr STB offering on Friday 8th July and sent them a cheque as knew the NBS money would be landing in my account soon (funds landed in my linked account today).

STB 2.2% must have been pulled today as it was still on offer yesterday:

Hi
I applied for the 2 yr fixed rate bond over the weekend, got the online paperwork but have not received an email confirming the account details. Isn't the email instant?

Thanks

I did the same - applied online on sunday evening.
I didn't get an email so I called them up today and they said the account was opened and the paperwork on its way.
I got the account number from them so all looks OK as long as I pay in by 8th August.

I did get a bit worried when I saw the link was broken but they must have been oversubscribed on the bond.
