Building society’s extra hours to help Bridlington savers
Colleagues at the Yorkshire Building Society branch in Bridlington are opening their doors on Saturday, April 4 and Saturday, April 11 to help savers make the most of the last day of this tax year and the first weekend of the new tax year.
The branch, at 14 Prospect Street, will be opening from 9am to noon on both Saturdays, for existing members and new customers looking to make the most of their current allowance for this tax year and open a new Individual Savings Account (ISA) for the new year.
The team will be on hand to provide information on ISAs as well as opening new accounts. Existing customers will also be able to visit the branch to pay in and top up their existing ISAs.
Opening an ISA at the start of a new tax year means savers accrue tax-free interest on their account from the very earliest point in time.
This year’s tax‑year changeover comes at an important moment for many savers. The Government has confirmed that from April 2027 the annual subscription limit for Cash ISAs will drop from £20,000 to £12,000 for anyone aged under 65. Savers aged 65 and over will retain the full £20,000 allowance.
Tina Hughes director of savings at Yorkshire Building Society said: “We know the end of the tax year and the start of a new tax year are important milestones for our customers. With confirmed changes to ISA allowances coming in 2027, it’s more important than ever that savers act now and make the most of the current, higher tax‑free limits while they are still available.
“Helping people to save is central to our purpose at Yorkshire Building Society. By opening our branches on Saturday 4 and Saturday 11 April, we hope savers can maximise their allowances.
“Offering customers choice of how they manage their money with us – whether in branch, online or through our app – is essential, and making in-branch services available during the last and first weekend of the tax year supports our aim to provide real help to our customers and members.”
