How do I manage my account? 

Self-service, online withdrawals will not be permitted from Saver Plus and you must contact us by sending us a message from your online member account, or via our standard communication channels to request a withdrawal. Upon a withdrawal request, we will remind you that doing so will forfeit your interest before processing the withdrawal (unless this happens during the rate variation notice period).  This may delay withdrawals compared with online requests and you should be mindful of this when opening the account.
