    So, we will find out tomorrow then ;D

    I imagine the lowest it could go up to, judging from past experience of their interest rate changes, is 4.9% AER,
    but hopefully it will go up to 5.0% or beyond!

    BTW, do many of you savers with ING set up a Regular Saver with them, or just fund your account "as and when", or both ???
    I want to be a good saver, but I find it difficult to control my temptation to spend :o .

    I owe £1,247 more than I have in savings :( .

    Very disappointing ING. Time to move elsewhere I think.

    not very competitive. time to move money out

    don't shift your cash until Monday AM otherwise you'll loose 2 days interest over the weekend - the withdrawal will be based on business days only..... ;)
