Summary Box

Charitable Donation

On a quarterly basis the donation amount will be donated to the Mansfield Building Society Charitable Trust. The donation amount will be calculated quarterly by taking the balance invested into all Mansfield Building Society Community Saver accounts at the end of each of the three months, adding the balance together, dividing by 3 to calculate the average balance, multiplying this amount by 0.10% and dividing the total by 4 as it’s a quarterly donation.

For example, if the balance at the end of January was £250,000, February £275,000 and March £300,000 then the average balance in quarter 1 would be £275,000; the Society will then donate £68.75.

Any estimate of the likely amount to be donated by the Society to the Mansfield Building Society Charitable Trust in the course of the next year will depend on the amount invested in all Community Saver accounts opened as part of the Community Saver account scheme. Based on an estimated average investment total in all Community Saver accounts of £10 million in a year, it is estimated that a total donation of £10,000 would be made in that year.

The percentage donation will be fixed until 31st December 2024. On or after 31st December 2024 the percentage donation will be reviewed and is not guaranteed.

Authorised Push Payment (APP) Fraud – Your Rights to Reimbursement

Authorised push payment (APP) fraud happens when you are tricked by a criminal into sending money by bank payment to an account that they control and which you do not.

From 7th October 2024, under the APP Fraud Reimbursement Rules, victims of APP fraud have rights relating to the reimbursement of money lost as part of an APP fraud. The rules cover payments made within the UK that are made using Faster Payment or CHAPS.

You can find out about your rights to reimbursement from our website or by picking up a leaflet from out branches.

If you think you’re a victim of APP Fraud, you must report it to us ASAP and you can make a claim online, by visiting us in branch or calling us on 01623 676350. Lines are open, Mon-Fri, 9am-4.30pm (Weds from 10am) and Saturdays, 9am-12 noon.

Definitions

1. AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and added to each year. AERs on the Monthly Income accounts assume interest is added to the account each month although in practice the option to have interest added in this way is not available.

2. The gross rate is the contractual rate of interest payable without tax taken off.
If separate AER/Gross rates are not quoted, both rates are identical.

^Tax free means you won’t pay UK tax on any income or capital gains your ISA makes.

Our savings accounts are exclusively available to UK Residents only.

These account details apply to personal investors only unless stated in the detailed information.
