Our Expert Opinion on Bank of Scotland Fixed Cash ISA 1 Year

Jonny PeaseCo-Founder, DepositScout

Bank of Scotland's Fixed Cash ISA pays 4.00% for one year, which is below the market average for cash ISAs and 1.12% behind the category leader at 5.12%. It does beat August 2026 CPI by 0.90%, so your money grows in real terms, but the rate is hard to justify when alternatives like Spring's Easy Cash ISA offer 4.01% with easier access. The cap of £20,000 fits a single ISA allowance neatly, though early closure costs you 90 days' interest.
