Privilege Savings account
Your Privilege current account is linked to a Privilege Savings account, which we open automatically, so there’s no need for you to do anything. It allows you to transfer money easily and earn interest while you save. It pays a rate of interest which is guaranteed to track 0.3% below the Bank of England Base Rate for the life of your Privilege current account. Having a Privilege Savings account means that you won’t have to spend time looking for a great place to put your money. All you have to do is sit back and relax knowing it’s earning you a good rate for as long as you keep your Privilege current account.
