You will have 14 days from the day you open your Fixed Term Deposit to deposit money into the account.

What happens at the end of the fixed term period?

At the end of the fixed term, you can choose to reinvest your money into a Monument savings product or withdraw it to your Linked Account.

Can I withdraw money during the fixed term period?

No, you can’t withdraw your money for the duration of the fixed term period.  However, you can change your mind and cancel the account within the 14-day funding period, and we will return your money to your Linked Account.

What is the minimum balance?

£25,000.

This balance requirement is for the combined total across all of your Monument accounts. For example, if you have an Easy Access and a Notice Account with us, you must hold a minimum of £25,000 in total across both accounts.
