  • Tax on savings interest only

    My only income for the 2024-25 tax year will be savings interest of about £21000 (no wages, pensions or other non-savings income).
    Will I get the £5000 starting rate for savings?
    Will I also get the £1000 personal savings allowance?
    As I am a basic rate tax payer would I pay 20% tax on the savings interest over £18570 only? Ie. 20% on £2430
