    I see Loughbrough have kept the RS interest rate at 4.25% in March.
    This is 3.25% over base and 0.75% over their minimum rate including 2.5% bonus.

    What do you think the chances of a reasonable rate remaining in April when the new 1% above base minimum bonus kicks in? If they stay above 3% total it may be worth keeping the account?
    Do Money Saving sites make you buy more bargains - and spend more money?

    Not worth taking the risk IMO being as 3% instant access can be obtained elsewhere and to qualify for the 2009/2010 bonus the account would need to be kept open until the end of bonus year 2010. ;)
