Closing an account and then reopening question.
I like everybody get fed up with their savings rate going down but new savers getting a much higher rate. I have an ING account, its now 4.75% I think. Can I close it down and then re-apply for the 6% the new savers get. I like ING, but I will leave them and thats a shame.
