A Good Fit For

  • Pro: New and existing savers
  • Pro: Savers who want a monthly income

Worth Weighing Up

  • Con: You need at least £1,000 to open it
  • Con: It doesn't accept transfers in from other ISAs
  • Con: Not flexible: money you withdraw can't be replaced without using more allowance

Good to Know

You can only withdraw your entire account balance (paid to your nominated bank account), but if you do this you’ll lose your tax-free ISA status.

Our Expert Opinion on Hodge Bank 1 Year Fixed Rate Cash ISA

Jonny PeaseCo-Founder, DepositScout

Hodge Bank's 1 Year Fixed Rate Cash ISA pays 4.92%, which sits above the market average for cash ISAs, though it is 0.33% behind the category leader at 5.25%. At 1.82% above CPI inflation of 3.1% (Aug 2026), it does at least offer a real return, which will appeal to ISA savers who want their money working in tax-free terms over a one-year horizon. The catch is the £1,000 minimum, a £20,000 cap, and an early access penalty equivalent to 90 days' interest, so this suits money you genuinely will not need for the full year.
