Can Coventry Building Society change the interest rate?
The interest rate is variable, so it can go up or down at any time.
For more details about why we may change the rate, as well as how and when we’ll let you know, see our Saving Accounts Terms and Conditions booklet (section 4).
What would the estimated balance be after 12 months based on a £150 monthly deposit?
£1,841.93
This would be the balance after 12 months if £150 was paid in on 1 October 2025 and on the first of each month from then on, all interest is paid back into the account at the end of 12 months, there was no change to the interest rate and no money was taken out during the year.

How to put money into your account
- Each calendar month you can pay in as many times as you like, up to a maximum of £150.
- If a payment takes you over the £150 monthly limit, the whole payment will be returned to you.
- You can pay in at any time but for it to count towards that calendar month’s allowance it has to arrive before the last day of the month, so we recommend you send any money to us at least a few days before the end of the month. Any money that arrives after the end of the month will be counted towards your next calendar month’s allowance.
You can...

If you take money out, you can still only pay in up to £150 per month. For example, if you take out £50, you can still only pay in your £150 monthly allowance; you can’t replace the £50 as well.
What happens at the end of 12 months?
At the end of 12 months, on the anniversary of account opening, your account will transfer to an Easy Access Saver (Maturity) – an account which allows unlimited withdrawals without charge. Easy Access Saver (Maturity) will pay a lower interest rate than Sunny Day Saver (2).
The interest rate on our Easy Access Saver (Maturity) is variable – this means we can change it and it can go up or down. We’ll write to you closer to the time to confirm your new rate. If you would like to see what rate Easy Access Saver (Maturity) pays now, you can:
- Visit Closed Accounts
- Call us on 0800 121 8899
- Ask us in any branch.
You’ll be able to keep saving and your account number won’t change. You’ll also have the option to take some or all of your money out or close your new account. We’ll send you a reminder and full details of the options available to you at least 14 days before the account transfers. If you take no action your account will become an Easy Access Saver (Maturity).
