RBS Vantage - over £5k interest

Hi
I'm aware that RBS Vatage pays 2% interest for balances between 4 - 5k but then says "You won’t earn interest on any balance over £5,000".
Might seem a daft question but if you had £5,001 do you get *any* interest at all? I assume the interest simply stops at £5k - any balances above that don't earn interest. 
Thanks

    You might wish to edit your thread title, and post, as the institution offering Vantage is Bank of Scotland (typically abbreviated to BOS) not Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS), which is an entirely separate and unrelated organisation....
