Abbey issues new fixed-term savings bonds

Abbey Savings has announced the launch of two new fixed-term savings accounts for their customers looking for a guaranteed return on an amount of money they can lock away until the end of the year. This is a great time for savings and these new products have been developed to allow customers to benefit from the current market conditions.

Abbey is backed by the Santander Group, one of the largest and best capitalised banks in the world and the largest bank by market capitalisation in the Eurozone.

Customers can apply for the Abbey Bond either by visiting their local branch or telephoning the customer sales line on 0800 234 6065. Customers can apply for the eBond online at abbey.com. Both bonds will be available from 24 September 2007 and will mature on 1 January 2008.

Reza Attar-Zadeh, Head of Savings and Investments at Abbey, said “This is a great time for savings and we will continue to develop products which allow our customers to benefit from the current market conditions. In addition to these excellent deals, we currently offer a Super Bond and Super ISA paying 8.1% fixed for one year and customers can earn up to 10% fixed for one year on our Super Monthly Saver.”
