We dealt with this when we were all checking for the interest at 00:01 this morning.0

That's why I moved my £500 out on 1 January, when I was doing the monthly £500 in and out routine. This time it was £500 in and £1000 out. Hope TSB's liquidity is strong enough to cope with the exodus0 -

Bad news that the interest rate has dropped on this account. One question for you guys, which I hope you can answer, I have 2 of these, and I understand that TSB going to reduce customers to 1 account at 3% £1500. Has this happened? I have been on my online banking but see no differences.
Is there something I have missed? Thanks for any answers.0 -

So my 2 accounts are still in place, although both at 3% £1500 balance, with the usual funding requirements? 60 days notice before any change?
Please forgive me, I have lost/wiped the email TSB sent. Thanks again.0
