    Just looked on ING website and they have dropped the interest rate on savings to 2.75 AER
    Which is 2.72% gross, as given in Stompa's link to eMoneyfacts above.
  • Thanks for the info guys. My savings stay where they are then!

    A&L and Halifax are also still offering rates they had before the 1.5% drop but highly likely they will change by Monday.

    As they did the Month before.

    Trying to catch a few extra customers before the next rate decision due next week.

    So how much do you think the others will reduce to?

    Is it fair to say that all savings rates are now complete toilet? Most of my savings are in ISAs, so they're tied up for another 5 months!
    Student Loan Company Ltd: 17,805 (2.8%) Overdraft: 500 (Interest free)
    Savings: £5,100
    - Target by end of 2008 £5,000+
    Net Worth
    1/7/06: -£32,698 -- Net Worth 25/8/08: -£13,350.

    That £100 you have with ING is £100 more than anyone else. ;)

    So there really is one born every minute, sorry I mean one every 20 seconds
  • My £2 will be worth about £2 at the end of next year. As you have to phone them to close your account and that will cost about £2, I think I will leave it there.
