Teachers Building Society: 90 Day Notice Account
- FSCS protects deposits up to £85,000 per person
About Teachers Building Society
Teachers Building Society was founded in 1966 by the National Union of Teachers (now the National Education Union) to help teachers and other education professionals onto the property ladder and provide a safe haven for their savings. Today, the Teachers Building Society offers a wide range of mortgage options to teaching professionals as well as a variety of competitive savings options which are available to all.
As a mutual organisation, Teachers Building Society is run solely for the benefit of their members, rather than shareholders. This means that instead of paying dividends to shareholders, they invest their profits back into the products and services they offer, ensuring that their mortgage and savings rates are as competitive as possible.
The FSCS protects deposits made into savings accounts offered by Teachers Building Society through our marketplace, and Teachers Building Society is authorised by the Prudential Regulation Authority and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority.

You may withdraw the full deposit amount only. This will be subject to a 90 day notice period. You are unable to add to the initial deposit or make partial withdrawals. Funds may be returned to your Raisin Account in two separate payments by MAM following the notice period expiry. For further information, please refer to clause 4.21 of the MAM Terms and Conditions.
Your notice of termination will start on the business day after your request to give notice.
Once notice has been given it can’t be revoked.
If a termination falls on a non-business day, then payment will be made on the next business day and interest will be paid for the additional days. e.g. If a notice account terminates on a Saturday and funds are returned on the Monday, interest will be paid for the intervening Sunday.
MAM, with their administration arm Meteor Investment Management (MIM), will administer the deposit on your behalf.
Funds will appear in MIM’s account by the following business day from funding your application at the latest. Funds will be remitted to Teachers BS by MIM on the second business day after arriving in the MIM account. It can therefore take up to 3 business days for an ordered product to be set up and start earning interest.
Cash and deposits will be held by MIM and MAM in trust for you under FCA client money and asset rules.
You have the right to cancel your account without charge and without giving any reason, within 14 calendar days from the day of opening this savings account. For further information, please refer to clauses 1.18 and 1.19 of the MAM Terms and Conditions.
