    Excellent. T212's willingness to nudge the rate up to be at the top of the table - at a time of savings rates generally declining - is the account's best feature.

    How long will it last with the BOE expected to drop the base rate on the 7th Nov

    Trading not directly lowered rates last time and gave around 10-12 days notice, for Euro rates it is even more notice just now (dropping on 1st November). So if rates go don on 7th we may be lucky to get the rate until around mid November or beyond.

    It gives the impression of an institution that wishes to stay top of the best buy tables which is encouraging given I'll likely put my whole year isa allowance in there.

    Investors Chronicle:
    The government will freeze allowances for Isas, Lifetime Isas and Junior Isas at their current levels until 2030, in a blow to investors. Annual limits on the trio will remain at £20,000, £4,000 and £9,000 respectively. Labour also confirmed it would not go ahead with the £5,000 British Isa allowance, to solely invest in domestic shares, as proposed by the last Tory government.

    A 'blow' would've been a reduction! 

    Edit:  Apologies, already being discussed here:

    Agree, a blow would have been a reduction or any other change so welcome news that nothing is changing (for now and until the next budget). How many "working people" can fill year after year their 20k ISA allowance anyway. Luckily, I am in that camp now, when 5 years ago this was unthinkable.

    This is the 8th year in a row at £20k and we can look forward to another 5 years or more at that level. Of course this is an annual allowance and the amount held in ISA continues to grow and grow. It'll be a trillion pounds soon.

    Just discovered the list at the start of this thread. Very useful however @Kazza242 I was looking to improve my Newcastle BS SAS Iss1 and noticed you have that as paying 5.0%. It is currently 4.75% and is also no longer available to new applications.

    Cuts coming in before the BoE meeting on Nov. 7th.
    Although a cut by the BoE is not a foregone conclusion.
