Nationwide ISA

I have a Nationwide ISA and got my interest on the 30th September.  The interest rate I got should have been 0.75%.  However, the amount I got was a lot less than I was expecting and was 0.15%.  I will go into Nationwide to query it when I am next in town to ask but wondered if anyone knows how it is calculated?

  • If this was the 18 month fixed ISA then you would have got part of your interest earlier in the year. Mine matured in September and I had received £150 earlier and then the remaining £76 upon maturity.

    Thank you for your reply.  It's a Flexclusive ISA.  Interest is paid yearly at the end of September.

    This one?



    If so, 0.75% only effective from 1 September 2022, i.e. the start of the month in which your interest is paid.
