Our Expert Opinion on Marsden Building Society Branch Saver 120

Jan WatermannCo-Founder, DepositScout

This is a 120-day notice account despite the Easy Access label, so it suits savers who can plan withdrawals well in advance and want a branch-based option with Marsden. The headline rate of 3.30% is below the easy access market average and sits 1.70% behind the category leader at 5.00%, which is a meaningful gap. Worth noting that the tiered rates for balances below £10,000 drop to 2.00% or 2.25%, so the 3.30% only applies from £10,000 upward. If you want something closer without the notice period, Tandem Bank's Instant Access Saver is currently paying 3.40%.
