Is there any way we can be included when you do the research?

The issue with CUs is that their accounts are not available to the general public.0 -
Great thanks for your input - we are working out how best to engage with MSE so your help is greatly appreciated.0

I made between 4% and 5% on my cash for each of the past 2 years, with full FSCS protection.0 -

Just answered my own question! No her money is not safe with a stocks and shares ISA, thanks MSE Martin for the write up on that! Still found better with the general ISA list sent out in the email the other week and it's way better than her 1% bank offer! Just wish they'd offer cashback too like the stocks and shares ISAs do!0

I'm always interested when someone says "found better". Was what you found Raphaels bank as in the quote by polymaff?. Where can the email you refer to be found? Thanks0 -

The 4.5% one has matured now and I can't replace it, so it will be badly missed. There will be a couple of others where the rate has / will come down, making my average for this year lower. I still expect it to be very close to 4% for this tax year.0
