Our Expert Opinion on TSB 1 Year Fixed Bond

Jan WatermannCo-Founder, DepositScout

TSB's 1 Year Fixed Bond pays 4.65%, which does beat August 2026 CPI of 3.1% by 1.55%, so your money grows in real terms, but the rate sits below the market average for fixed-rate accounts and is 0.70% behind the category leader at 5.35%. The minimum deposit of just £1 makes it accessible, though the hard catch is that no withdrawals or early closure are permitted during the one-year term except on death. If you want a one-year fix, OakNorth Bank's Fixed Term 12 Months at 4.96% or Atom Bank's 1 Year Fixed Saver at 4.90% are worth a look first.
