A&L Online saver 5 - has my bonus gone?

I opened the A&L onlie saver when it first came out (couple of years ago?)

I have just been on the A&L site and it gave a rate of

Gross p.a./AER% Net p.a.
Online Saver (Issue 5) Including bonus (v) Excluding bonus Including bonus Excluding bonus
£1 plus 3.15% 0.50% 2.52% 0.40%

Net with bonus of 2.52%

My question is is this bonus still been given?

If not I will open the new eSaver a
The rate of 2.75% includes a variable bonus of 2.25% gross/AER for the first 12 months from account opening.


PS I guess reading the above they clearly state 12 moths so was this the case for the online saver???

    Good job I checked!

    Just applied for the eSaver at 2.75% (with 12months bonus) so will make a note in my diary as to when to switch next year.


    Edit to add

    I also just checked I have the version 6 of the online savings account, I guess that runs out October this year?

    It ends 1 year after the date of opening. October is when interest is paid.
