(PRWeb UK) June 17, 2010

Santander is pleased to announce that from Thursday, 17 June, they are launching a new best buy one year fixed rate savings bond for savers wanting to lock in a competitive return.

It is a limited offer that is due to be withdrawn on 30 June and may be withdrawn earlier – without notice – if available funds are used up before then.

Reza Attar-Zadeh, Director of Savings and Investments at Santander “With Bank Base Rate remaining at an all time low, savers are having to make their money work harder than ever before. This latest one year offering will help savers to maximise returns without the need to lock their money away for the long term. The bond is only available to customers bringing new money to Santander and may be withdrawn if sold out so we urge savers to act fast to secure these great rates”.

Customers can apply either by visiting any local branch or by contacting Santander by telephone on 0800 234 6065 while stocks last.
