What is the interest rate? |
Interest is calculated on the daily balance of the account. Interest payable annually on 5 April and on maturity. Maturity interest can only be added to the account. |
||||||

||||||
What would the estimated balance be after 24 months based on a £1,000 deposit? |
This projection is provided for illustrative purposes only and does not take into account your individual circumstances. This assumes that the account is opened on 1st December with a £1,000 cash deposit and that no further deposits or withdrawals are made during the account term. The projected balance is based on the annual rate (AER1). |
||||||
How do I open and manage my account? | Available to savers aged 18 years or over, providing the investor has not added to another Cash ISA in the same tax year with us, or reached the £20,000 overall subscription limit for Cash ISAs. An ISA account may not be held on behalf of a person other than the account holder. Investments are wholly owned by the ISA subscriber. Simply complete an ISA application form and send it to us or take it to your local branch. A minimum of £500 must be deposited in order to open the account. Internal transfers from existing ISA customers and transfers in from other providers are allowed as long as the account remains open to new savers. For new deposits, the account can be added to until 5 April 2025 and is subject to annual subscription limits and your total savings with us does not exceed £400,000. The maximum savings allowance of £400,000 applies regardless of whether the account is held in single or joint names. A maximum amount of £20,000 may be deposited in accordance with the annual ISA subscription limit in the 2024/25 tax year. You can only pay into one Cash ISA in the same tax year with us, although you may operate separate Cash ISAs with alternative providers while retaining your ISA with us, subject to the overall £20,000 ISA subscription limit in the current tax year. Once the maximum amount has been subscribed in any tax year no further subscriptions will be allowed regardless of how much is withdrawn. You can manage your account in branch or through the post. |
||||||
Can I withdraw money? | No withdrawals allowed. If you want to take money out, the account must be closed in branch or by post and all funds are then paid to you by cheque. Early closure is subject to 180 days loss of interest on the closing balance. Transfers to another account with us or to another ISA provider will be subject to the loss of 180 days interest on the amount transferred. At the end of the term, you can choose to reinvest your money with us, withdraw it in the form of a cheque, or transfer the money to another provider. We will contact you shortly before maturity (the end of fixed term period) to ask which you prefer, but if we receive no instructions your money will be transferred to our Easy Access Cash ISA. |
||||||

Individual Savings Accounts (ISAs) were designed by the Government and are exempt from UK income tax and capital gains tax.
The information presented is based on our understanding of current law and HM Revenue & Customs practice at the time of publication. There are no guarantees that the favourable tax treatment on this account will be maintained. The Government is responsible for the tax treatment. Future changes in legislation and tax practice could affect this information. If you require further information about ISAs you can obtain a fact sheet from the Building Societies Association (BSA) website www.bsa.org.uk called ‘Individual Savings Accounts, incorporating New ISAs’.
What ISAs are available?
There are two types of ISA
• Cash ISA
• Stocks and Shares ISA
• Innovative Finance ISA
• Lifetime ISA
Please note: Mansfield Building Society only offers Cash ISAs.
You can subscribe to both a Cash ISA and a Stocks and Shares ISA in the same year, and you can choose different options in different years if you wish. However, the extent to which you might wish to invest in stocks and shares will be determined by a number of factors including your attitude to risk and the level of the stock market. For example, are you prepared for the value of your investments to go down as well as up? Also, if you are not a higher rate taxpayer, or likely to make significant capital gains chargeable to tax, there are no tax benefits from holding UK equity shares within a ISA.
You can have a different ISA Manager for each component. By opening a Cash ISA you will limit your eligibility for savings in equities through Stocks and Shares ISAs.
The overall ISA allowance can be split in any proportion between Cash ISAs and Stocks and Shares ISAs as long as the overall annual limit is not exceeded.
The new tax year starts on 6 April and finishes on 5 April in the following year.
Investors under the age of 18 are eligible for a Junior ISA.
Can I transfer my ISA to another ISA Manager?
Yes. Funds in an ISA may be transferred from one ISA Manager to another. The transfer must be arranged by the new ISA Manager directly with us.
Funds in an ISA from previous year’s investments may be transferred from one Manager to another in whole or in part.
ISA Managers are not obliged to accept transfers. If you wish to make a transfer, you will need to complete a transfer application with the new ISA Manager.
You cannot transfer your ISA by closing one ISA and opening another one. This has to be done by your ISA Manager(s), otherwise you risk losing some of your ISA entitlement.
The funds and information will be sent to the new Manager within 5 working days. This will be calculated from the date we receive the transfer request. Interest will be calculated up to the day before the date of the transfer.
New Individual Savings Accounts (ISAs) are a scheme of tax-free investment managed in accordance with the Individual Savings Account Regulations 1998 (SI 1998 No 1870) as amended by the The Individual Savings Account (Amendment) Regulations 2024.

• The account opening date will be the date on which both the correctly completed application form and initial subscription are accepted by the Society.
• The account may not be held on behalf of another person other than the account holder.
• The ISA manager will satisfy himself that any person to whom he delegates any of his functions or responsibilities under the terms agreed with the investor is competent to carry out those functions and responsibilities.
• The ISA manager must notify the investor if, by reason of any failure to satisfy the provisions of the ISA Regulations, an ISA has, or will, become void.
• The account holder must be resident in the United Kingdom for tax purposes or, if not so resident, either perform duties which, by virtue of Section 28 of Income Tax (Earnings & Pensions) Act 2003 (Crown employees serving overseas), are treated as being performed in the United Kingdom, or married to, or in a civil partnership with a person who performs such duties. The account holder must inform Mansfield Building Society if they cease to be so resident or perform such duties or be married to, or in a civil partnership with, a person who performs such duties.

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.
