About this product

The Nationwide Fixed Rate Cash ISA can be opened with as little as £1.

You can open a Nationwide Cash ISA by using the banking app or internet bank (if you’re registered) or you can visit a local branch. Withdrawing money before the term ends closes the account and you’ll pay an early access charge.

Nationwide Fixed Rate Cash ISA reviews help you find out what it’s really like to be a customer. If you’ve used Nationwide before, you can also leave a review and share your experience.

Review of the Nationwide, Cash ISA:

Martin Lewis wouldn't be impressed!!

Opened a new 1 year fixed rate ISA yesterday at 5.1 %, which seems good compared to recent returns. However, I asked what happens at the end of the year if I don't contact them (I am old and could find myself in hospital then etc.etc.) The answer is that the money goes into a holding "Maturity Account". After further enquiry, I establish that the maturity account would pay 1.4% interest "as instant access". Martin Lewis, in his weekly MSE newsletter says that we shouldn't be accepting less than 4% on instant access accounts. I like the local Nationwide very much, but, come on Nationwide, is this fair and good practice??? And how much investors money are you holding at this derisory rate? Reviewed on: 14th July 2023
