Oh dear that is poor from Shawbrook - they has some great long fixed rates and now nothing...will have to look elsewhere. Wanted to transfer today. I have a two year fix maturing with them in July as well.I would normally have a cup of tea2

Money to Tembo (OB) and Monument (FP) arrived instantly this morning (Sunday). I haven't used Chip for a long time, but I'm sure the transactions are instant 24/7 as it used to be.guli said:Hi guys - does Chip accept and considers for interest purposes, faster payment or Open Banking deposit in on Sundays? It's going to be 6th morning soon!What about Tenbo and Monument?Thanks.0 -
I've recently opened a 1 year fix with Shawbrook at about 4.5% (from previously maturing ISA, opened mid-March) so I'm expecting to add to that instead.1

Monument is standalone. https://www.fscs.org.uk/check/check-your-money-is-protected/Qyburn said:
I'm fed up with "bonus rates" especially as they now seem to be only for 3 months at a time. Is Monument a standalone bank, not sharing its FSCS protection with anyone else?allegro120 said:https://www.monument.co/savings/easy-access-cash-isa
4.76%. Flexible. Instant transactions. Provides with a proper t&c. No 3-month bonuses. Funds are held in Monument bank, not randomly scattered around a variety of banks or in case of CMC held in QMMF.0 -
Wonder if Shawbrook started to get concerned about the number of people opening long-term ISAs and not depositing anything until it’s unprofitable for them!

Hi. Yes. I deposited £1 this morning to the Chip ISA and it added the bonus to my ISA. Mine is now 5.90%guli said:Hi guys - does Chip accept and considers for interest purposes, faster payment or Open Banking deposit in on Sundays?

How long did it take for the interest rate to update? I paid in £1 about 30 mins ago, but it's showing my interest rate as 4.32%ItsForMe2024 said:

I'm tempted to put my 20k premium bonds into Chip's ISA and then see what else is around after 3 months. Any experience with Chip?I also have ISA products with Tembo and Trading 212 so want to spread around - plus Chip is flexible which I need at the moment.1

I opened a Chip ISA yesterday and put my £20k in today. It'll get me a good rate for three months while I decide what to do with the money (planning to fix some, and invest some, but undecided how much and in what).Oasis1 said:I'm tempted to put my 20k premium bonds into Chip's ISA and then see what else is around after 3 months.

It's flexible which is what I need. Whether I'll keep it when the bonus ends, or transfer elsewhere depends on what's available at the time.3
