Update! Santander First Home Saver Account: 5% on up to 50k savings (up to 35 only)

Hi I have just been to my local Santander branch today, and it appears that the account will only become instant access as of midnight today.
So I'll give it 24 hours and try again.
Out of interest anyone had any different answers from Santander?:cool:0 -
Managed to transfer half my money elsewhere today without being told I had to close the account.0

Absolutely gutting that the 5% rate has come to an end. Not entirely sure what I'll do with my money now. Probably leave it in there for the 3% rate.0

The 5% was too good to be true, and nice while it lasted, but 3% isn't as big a slap in the face as they could have delivered.I am not a financial adviser and neither do I play one on television. I might occasionally give bad advice but at least it's free.
Like all religions, the Faith of the Invisible Pink Unicorns is based upon both logic and faith. We have faith that they are pink; we logically know that they are invisible because we can't see them.0 -
i transferred it all apart form £1 to my current account then used internet banking to transfer it to my monmouthshire 4% account today. I had to walk through the staff what to do they had no clue. Its defos today that the account changed because the interest rate is now 3%.0

I've used the bulk of it for my ISA allowance and will leave the rest where it is for now. I think I'll keep the standing order running as well.0

I have rang up and transferred all but £1 to my current account no problem. Whizzed off part to my ISA which is only part funded and the rest to my eSaver paying a bit better than this account.
Kept account open as rates are so bad I might need the 3% when my current esaver bonus finishes.
Do people have any opinions about stocks and shares ISAs? I am tempted to open one and invest about £3000 - £5000 to see how it goes. Rates are tanking so quick and I wont be using this money for 3-5 years at least.0 -
Still not seeing it online (can't add it)0

When I asked the same a few weeks ago, the secure message I received said this account wouldn't be appearing online...
