    Just use Moneyfacts. You can't expect somebody to keep on top of the opening post.
    What's the point of the opening post that purports to be updated frequently, then?
    The thread was started in 2007 and was last updated a month ago. There can be all sorts of reasons a commitment started 18 years ago may go through periods where it is not front and centre of an individual's life. I'm sure Kazza would be the first to offer you a full and immediate refund if you feel you haven't received the level of service you were entitled to ;)
    OK. It seems my recent comments here have been taken as a criticism of Kazza, which was not what I intended.

    My original post pointed out information that (ideally) would have been updated two months ago ("w.e.f. 22/08/2025". It was intended to highlight the existence of out-of-date information that could easily have been overlooked. The comment about "New" was intended as a suggestion that alternatives would be better - such as "New as at xx/xx/xxxx".

    Gambler's reply simply suggested using an alternative web site, which I think implies NOT using this thread. My reply was a genuine question, and again NOT a criticism of Kazza.

    So, I offer my apologies to anyone who thought I was being critical. In particular, I am sorry if I have offended Kazza, and I wish him/her all the best if there is (as masonic suggests) any particular problem in his/her life at the present time. I have derived much benefit from this thread over quite some time, and I am nothing but grateful for the time and effort put into it.


    Well said.

    This thread is great. I use it extensively for the comments which are very helpful but tend to ignore the OP and use moneyfacts instead for up to date rates.

    Updates also take place in the thread.

    Do I need to contact them to delete my profile etc, or will simply deleting my account in the app be enough?
    You need to tell them to delete, this is the best way to make sure the data is "deleted" from their systems. 
    Surely they can't as past ISA amounts will need to be reported to HMRC. 
    There is a reason why I put deleted into quotation marks ;-)

    On a side note, Chip is back up to 4.39%, probably only for a few more hours or if lucky a few days. 

    Moneybox also upped their rates to 4.52%. I wonder if closing down Moneybox and reopening with new email works in the same way as it does with Chip. Anyone experience with that because 4.52% is a very good rate and one that tempts me to try and close down Moneybox and reopen to move my funds from my 4.35% Cynergy account.

    I have just completed a transfer from Moneybox to Principality because MY rate on MY version of their ISA drops to 3.7% on 28/10 (took over 3 weeks to xfer but rate is better and PrinBS ISA is flexible unlike MB). 

    I'm done with this rate-chasing, it's going to have to be an almighty big hike before I'm moving again.
