Our Expert Opinion on Melton Building Society 180 Day Notice Account

Jan WatermannCo-Founder, DepositScout

Melton Building Society's 180 Day Notice Account pays 3.45%, which is below the market average for notice accounts and sits 0.95% behind the current notice market leader at 4.40%. That said, it does edge above August 2026 CPI of 3.1% by 0.35%, so your money is at least growing in real terms. The obvious catch is the 180-day notice period, which is one of the longer commitments in this category, and if you need more flexibility, Moneybox offers a 90 Day Notice account at 4.00% with a much shorter wait to access your funds.
