Our Expert Opinion on Chorley Building Society Chorleian Share

Jan WatermannCo-Founder, DepositScout

The Chorleian Share pays 0.90%, which is 4.10% below the easy access market leader at 5.00% and sits below the market average, so it is hard to recommend this as a primary savings home. At 2.20% below CPI inflation of 3.1% (Aug 2026), your money is losing real purchasing power. Interest is calculated daily but only paid once a year on 31st December, which is worth knowing if you want regular income. Anyone wanting easy access would be better served looking at alternatives like Tandem Bank's Instant Access Saver at 3.40%.
