    No I do not work for a bank or building society. Personally I would prefer companies to send me less paper work, not more, and put the money saved from doing this into better interest rates. As I have said before the rate you mention about is in fact pretty average and certainly not the poorest available, and if you do not keep an eye on your savings you cannot complain when the rate becomes uncompetitive. Caveat emptor.
  • Perhaps the thread could have a more general warning:-

    Be wary of saving with banks, building societies, insurance companies, money lenders and IFAs.

    Read the small print.
