Our Expert Opinion on Market Harborough BS PlanetSaver - 150 Day Notice Account

Jan WatermannCo-Founder, DepositScout

The PlanetSaver 150 Day Notice Account pays 3.6%, which is below the market average for notice accounts and 0.80% behind the best notice rate available at 4.40%. That said, 3.6% does sit 0.50% above CPI inflation of 3.1% (Aug 2026), so your money is at least growing in real terms. The 150-day notice period is a meaningful commitment, and with a £5,000 minimum to open, I would look at Shawbrook's 45 Day Notice Account at 3.77% first if you want shorter notice and a better rate.
