Children's Savings FAQS

Our Young Saver account allows anyone over the age of 18 to open an account for a child under 16 on their behalf as long as you hold a TSB current account and are a UK resident.

To open a TSB Junior Cash ISA for a child under 16, you must have parental responsibility for the child to open the account. If the child is between 16 and 17 they must open a junior ISA account in their own name.

Our Young Saver accounts allows instant access withdrawals with no penalties.

If you have a junior ISA you’re unable to withdraw funds before the child is 18, there are some exceptions in case of terminal illness and requires HMRC permission to make a withdrawal.


Financial Services Compensation Scheme


The Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) protects up to £120,000 of your eligible money at TSB. For more information, please visit the FSCS website.



Important Information

The Annual Equivalent Rate (AER) shows what the interest would be if the interest was paid and added to the account once each year. It lets you compare savings accounts easily. Gross rate means that credit interest is paid without income tax being deducted. Tax-free is the contractual rate of interest payable where interest is exempt from income tax. Tax treatment depends on your individual circumstances and may change.

You need to be 16+ and UK resident to open most of our savings accounts with the exception of Savings Pots and TSB ISAs. For children under 16 please see specific pages for opening procedures.
