Now the egg have lowered the rate on their savings account, this one might be of some interest to people instead.

I have checked the citibank website and it isnt showing online yet.

Can I transfer funds easily from this account to a nominated account, i.e. my current account, as with ING for instance?

KTF

I dont see why not. There is instant access via online banking or over the phone.

I just hate these accounts that are only available to new customers!

Nice one. I need a new account, my Egg one's full up. Was a bit concerned that as Egg is owned by Citigroup, Citibank would be covered by the same FSCS licence. But they are covered by separately so you're ok for 50k in each.
