Skipton Building Society

If you're a Skipton Building Society mortgage or savings customer you can now access its new 7.5% regular savings account. The eye-catching rate is one of the highest we've seen on this type of account in a decade. Below we explain how it works, how it compares and how to get it.

Renters struggling to save for a deposit can now get a 100% mortgage from Skipton Building Society. It's the first no-deposit deal – that doesn't require a guarantor's backing – to launch in the UK since 2008, and MoneySavingExpert.com founder Martin Lewis says it could be a "sensible" option for some. We explain who can get it, how it works and the risks you need to watch out for below.

Skipton Building Society is launching a new two-year fixed-rate mortgage, offering a 0.99% interest rate if you're borrowing 60% of your home's value.

The first cash Lifetime ISA has already proved popular with savers, with thousands opened in the first week of its launch.

Skipton Building Society will launch the UK's first cash Lifetime ISA on Thursday. It'll offer an annual interest rate of just 0.5% – but crucially if you use one to save, you'll also get a 25% state bonus when you buy a home or turn 60.

Skipton Building Society has become the first provider to announce it will offer a cash Lifetime ISA - but you won't be able to get one until June.

NatWest and RBS are among the providers which will offer 95% mortgage deals under the Government's new Help to Buy scheme.

Thousands of West Bromwich Building Society buy-to-let mortgage customers will be hit by rate hikes from December, despite having products which track the base rate. However, those affected can escape penalty-free.
