Cooling-off
If you are not happy with your choice of bond, you have a 14-day period in which to contact us to cancel your bond or switch to another account. Any interest earned during the cooling-off period will be paid to you. This 14-day period begins on the date your bond is opened or the date you receive your terms and conditions, whichever is the later.
