Interest is calculated daily using your statement balance and is paid on the first working day of each month.
The interest rate you will receive for each month depends on whether you have made any withdrawals from the Blue Rewards Saver account since the account was opened, in the case of the first month, or since interest was last paid into the account.
Can Barclays change the interest rate?
Yes, rates are variable. We can increase or decrease the interest rates for the reasons set out in our ‘Barclays and you’ booklet, which is available in branch, or you can read our Terms and conditions for Personal customers. Both also explain when we may change the interest rates, and the notice we’ll give you.
