    Works ok for me, 3.20% still showing, also noticed a fixed rate at 3.60% one year internet as well.

    It's the application part that's down, not the whole web site.

    And mine is now showing 3.20% as well, which is good.

    I did get another email from the AA stating that because the question I was asking was more specific about my account (which I didn't think it was), I would have to phone them. I don't follow their logic there, but I'm not bothered enough to spend time pursuing it as the interest rate has been upgraded. Good thing I checked, as I'd have been quite annoyed to have spent ages on the phone, in the queue, giving the passwords, only to find that the answer is just "yes".

    Mine is showing 0.00% AER Gross, probably because of the delay in getting the first payment across to them. Takes a while for some reason.

    According to the AA website as of 21/12/2011 the Internet Issue 5 Account is now closed to new entrants. Issue 4 is still open but offering only 2.8%.

    Looks like I squeaked in before it was closed to new applications. Waiting on the welcome letter.

    I've got two Internet Accounts which I can view online.

    I opened a Postal account a few months ago.
    Is it possible to view that Postal account online anywhere, or will I have to wait for postal updates?
    Thanks.
    It's your money. Except if it's the governments.

    Phew! I sneaked in as well and the welcome letter will hopefully arrive in the next day or so. I can then close my two Lloyds Vantage and put the £10,000 in the AA. This will save the monthly faff of £1000 transfers in and out at Lloyds:eek:
