AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and shows what the interest would be if we paid interest and added it each year. The gross rate is the rate paid before income tax is taken off. Rates may change and we pay interest each month.

EAR stands for Effective Annual rate and represents the yearly cost of an overdraft, which takes into account how often we charge interest to the account and does not include any other fees or charges. Overdrafts depend on your circumstances and you must repay any overdraft when we ask in line with our General Terms and Conditions.
