Cahoot

in Savings & investments
When I check the rates for my Cahoot accounts I see that just about all of Cahoot's accounts etc are 'Not currently on sale'.

Has this been the situation for long?
Have I missed something?
Is there something I should know?
It's your money. Except if it's the governments.

    Thanks.
    Assume you mean scaled down?

    Does that mean I should move accounts or just carry on?

    Chances are your accounts are rubbish and only paying 0.05%.

    While IF's lending has more or less vanished, they still have a couple of reasonably competitive savings accounts open to new and existing customers.

    rubbish interest rates, yes....but GBP100 interest free overdraft on current accounts, so best to keep the account overdrawn for as long as you can.
