We’re pleased to see that Financial Services Compensation Scheme have increased their deposit protection limit to £120,000 starting from 1st December 2025. This enhanced level of protection strengthens trust in the UK’s financial services landscape and ensures that a greater proportion of our members’ savings is automatically safeguarded. In addition, the FSCS has increased cover for temporary high balances to £1.4 million for up to six months. This is particularly relevant during significant financial events such as property transactions, inheritances or substantial insurance settlements. At esbs, we welcome these changes. They not only provide greater security for our members but also enhanced protection supports confidence, encourages responsible saving and aligns with our ongoing commitment to member-focused service. T&Cs apply. #esbs #earlshiltonbuildingsociety #depositprotection #financialservices
About us
Earl Shilton Building Society is one of the UK's longest established building societies. We offer a competitive range of mortgages to suit everyone from first time buyers, to those looking to build their own home, or to people simply looking to remortgage. We also offer a wide variety of savings opportunities to suit your requirements, as well as online Wills and helping with your insurance needs. Earl Shilton Building Society is very proud to have retained its core values promoting thrift and home ownership, but also helping and listening to its members, giving a personal service wherever possible. It is a mutual organisation run by, and for, its members and, as with other mutual organisations, the Society has no shareholders to consider, therefore we can provide competitive products to both savers and borrowers. Although the Society's customer base is nationwide, we also recognise how important it is to help the local community and we support local events, schools and charities.

We’re excited to announce the launch of three brand-new Online Notice Accounts, giving our members a new digital way to save. Available in 90-day, 120-day, and 180-day options, each account offers a attractive interest rate, with the 180-day option including a special bonus if it’s kept open for a full year. These account can be opened and managed entirely online via email, making them especially convenient for those who prefer to handle their finances remotely. At the same time, members still benefit from the personal support, security, and reassurance of a traditional building society with extra help available for those less experienced with digital services. Members can sign up easily via our website and manage their savings through emails. Scott Devereux, Chief Executive of esbs, said, “We are delighted to be able to offer our members a new channel for opening a savings account with us, starting with three attractive notice accounts offering competitive rates of interest. This new channel further strengthens our broader savings proposition, and we look forward to adding more products in the future.” #esbs #buildingsociety #onlinebanking #noticeaccounts
