    Not sure if this was reported before but looks like YBS ISA's rate is increasing. Currently showing 3.1% on the website https://www.ybs.co.uk/savings/product?id=YB851683W



    All of YBS’ variable rates have gone up by 0.25% today (source ~ https://www.ybs.co.uk/boe-rate-change)
    YBS variable also gone up to 4.25 % Loyalty Six Access Saver e-ISA Issue 2

    Yes, it was 4% below £20,000 and 3.5% above £20,000. It is now 4.25% below £20,000 and 3.75% above £20,000. They've all gone up 0.25%

    I think it's amazing as it offers flexibility as well as transfer ins.

    If it's possible to have an online and  branch based account version I'm quite tempted to open up a second and transfer my older ISA into it

    Is it permitted to have both versions?

    I'm still trying to find out. I phoned up and was told yes but told no online. 
    I'll try to go to a branch next week and see what they say. It's very confusing. 

    But someone recently mentioned they managed to do it

    Will you update us if you find out.
    I would have to request an application form as there are no branches here.
    Going by the eligibility section it looks as though its possible, especially as they are 2 different issues, online is issue 2 and postal/branch issue 3

    Yes I'll update once I've got it all confirmed.

    You would think they would explain that you can have one online and one branch based as its such a great account to have 😊

    Do you have accounts with them already? 
    Some of the accounts are for customers of 1 year plus.

    Isn’t their loyalty one flexible? The fact sheet suggests it is ~  https://www.ybs.co.uk/documents/productdata/Factsheet-YB941685W.pdf

    Maybe, but I am not elegible for loyalty.
