The pound values and percentages on this page are invented AcornBank product terms, chosen for a realistic bank-style example. They are not current market offers, an invitation to deposit or invest money or a forecast of what a real bank will pay.

Assumptions: no incoming or outgoing payments, no borrowing, twelve monthly account fees and no interest. This is an account-cost illustration, not a savings-return table. A payment to another account moves money; it does not create a return. The balance is assumed large enough to cover every fee.
Acorn Everyday is current account in the Current accounts range, used for keeping everyday income and spending organised. Its live rate card, summary and worked tables sit above this text and update whenever the product record changes.
Detailed demonstration terms
The product is current account, used for keeping everyday income and spending organised. The eligibility, principal limits, fee treatment and access timing in the summary box form one consistent fictional example. A variable rate is not guaranteed; a fixed rate ends with its stated term; an investment value is not guaranteed at all. Any different rate or changed payment pattern requires a new calculation. These paragraphs do not create a contract or confer rights to banking services.

What the example does not promise
All figures are invented and shown to make the demo useful to read and crawl. No money is held, no application is available, and no deposit-protection, regulatory or tax-wrapper status is claimed. Calculations do not account for personal tax, inflation or unstated changes in rates. The fictional bank manager can guarantee only that the next paragraph contains no real acorns.
