HSBC Preferential Cash Mini ISA

I follow these boards quite closely but hadn't seen any mention of this deal.
Thought is was worth flagging up anyway. Might be worthwhile for HSBC Premier bank account or Bank Account Plus holders, if they have a large Cash Mini ISA stashes. Also pays interest monthly. Note interest bonus is for 6months only.

An instant access savings account that's free from income tax. Our Cash Mini ISA is a straightforward tax free savings account that comes with no hidden charges and a tax free variable interest rate of up to 5.01% AER/5.15% gross*.

If you hold an HSBC Premier bank account or Bank Account Plus, you could enjoy a preferential tax free variable interest rate of up to 5.26% AER/5.39% gross*.

Please see Important notes (PDF, 44kb) for the terms and conditions that apply to our introductory bonus offer.

If you already have a Cash Mini ISA with us, here's how to top-up.

* Includes introductory bonus

Interest rates are:
Up to £15,000 Tax Free 4.91 Gross 4.76 AER
£15,000+ Tax Free 5.39 Gross 5.26 AER

If you qualify, this beats the A&L Direct ISA Issue 2 for the first 6 months at current interest rates. Otherwise though I guess A&L is better for a more stable relationship and less hoops to jump through.
