Our Expert Opinion on Progressive Building Society Online 1 Year Fixed Rate Access Bond

Jonny PeaseCo-Founder, DepositScout

Progressive Building Society's Online 1 Year Fixed Rate Access Bond pays 4.75%, which sits below the market average for fixed-rate accounts and 0.62% behind the current leader at 5.37% across all terms. That said, 4.75% does beat August 2026 CPI of 3.1% by 1.65%, so your money is at least growing in real terms. The genuine catch here is that despite the word "access" in the name, the account offers no access until maturity, so only commit money you can leave untouched for the year. If you want a one-year fix specifically, Atom Bank's 1 Year Fixed Saver at 4.90% is worth a look.
