Is being a Rate Tart such a good idea?

Don't knock it, that'll buy me my Sun and a packet of crisps each day!
Seriously though, 68p a day... not much. £250 extra a year however, that's worth changing for for sure.

If you think £250 a year is worth doing something about,
stop buying the Sun and cut out those crisps

you'll be better off in both body and mind

I review my savings and Investments once a year. All this switching people here talk about is not for me.

"We all?"

I review my savings and Investments once a year...

I review whenever a new account pops up with a better rate/interesting offers (eg. cashback). Once a year is hardly enough these days. I make my savings work as hard as I've worked to accrue them.

"We all" refers to the many people who got Icesave/KE accounts as a result of MSE recommendations. I suspect the majority of UK customers of these two are MSE viewers, so "we all" stands

No it isn't, if i was Martin i would put a note saying that banking always carries a risk (however small) and that maybe now is not the right time to chase the best return and concentrate on finding a safe place for your money!
