Home > Guides > How to renew a fixed rate bond

Step 1

Visit raisin.co.uk and in the top right corner of the page, log in to your Raisin UK Account between 28 and 5 days before your fixed rate bond is due to mature.

Step 2

Once you’ve logged in, you need to view your ‘Funded products’. You can do this by hovering over ‘My Savings’ in the header and clicking ‘Fixed rate bonds’ in the dropdown. If there’s an option to renew any of your funded savings accounts, you’ll see a blue button that says ‘View renewal offers’ (please be aware that if a partner bank isn’t offering an option to renew, this button won’t appear).

Step 3

You can view the renewal offers by clicking the blue ‘View renewal offers’ button, including the product details of each renewal option being offered by the partner bank.

Step 5

You can decide whether you want to renew your savings account solely with your original deposit or you have the option to renew with your original deposit as well as the interest or profit that you’ve earned, increasing your renewal deposit amount.

Your savings, your choice

If you don’t want to renew your fixed rate bond, you don’t need to do anything during the renewal window. Simply wait until your renewal window closes and we’ll transfer your deposit and any interest or profit that you’ve earned to your Transaction Account.

If you choose to renew your savings account, and the interest rate drops before your savings account matures, we'll automatically cancel your renewal request.
