Savings FAQ's
Is there a charge to open a savings account?
No, you just have to keep a minimum of £1 in your Regular Savings at all times.
Why do I need to keep £1 in?
When you open a savings account, you become a member of Hoot. Hoot is a member-owned co-operative, and you become a member shareholder.

Hoot savings do not offer interest, but as a shareholder, you will get a share of the profit (a dividend) in proportion to your savings (subject to credit union performance).
