Our Expert Opinion on Harpenden Building Society Hart 1 Year Fixed Rate Cash ISA

Jonny PeaseCo-Founder, DepositScout

Harpenden Building Society's Hart 1 Year Fixed Rate Cash ISA pays 4.26%, which sits below the cash ISA market average and 0.99% behind the category leader at 5.25%. It does at least beat August 2026 CPI of 3.1% by 1.16%, so your money grows in real terms. The catch is the usual one for fixed ISAs: no withdrawals during the term. If you want a one-year fixed ISA, Virgin Money's 1 Year Fixed Rate Cash E-ISA at 4.77% is worth a look first.
