Thats brilliant, thanks!!:beer:
Can I just ask where you got the info from, so if I need to look again I can find it? If it was from various sources, don't worry, just thought I might have been missing out on a good website0 -

I do, but rates change0

Learning point:
Make a note of the full name of any account including its issue number.
This enables you to check later on regarding rates.
Also note whether it is fixed or variable at the start and how long the fixed element lasts and what happens at the end of any initial period and when that is.
Sorry if the above sounds like just stating the obvious.0 -
As long as the numers work, I go with it.

Yes, I guess you can always come back here and ask

Are we sure about these rates? LloydsTSB says 8% *fixed*, but when I started mine this time last year it was 7% fixed. Now, I assume that "fixed" means that I'm still getting 7%, but their website only lists the current 8% rate and it doesn't mention anything about previous rates.0

That's why I wrote:

And why RayWolfe said "Keep records".0
