    'Speculator' in the link thread below says he rang YBS and they said that there are no increases to either their regular saver (7%) or their e-isa (5.8%)

    Sorry, what I meant was that the rate remains at 7% & 5.8% but could go up later this week when they annouce the new rates.

    Definitely.......I'm off. I expect a 0.50 increase in the rate after 2 rate rises, not a paltry 0.15.

    rates are changing 5th august see general savings forum for reg saver increase ( 0.15% was close)

    Thanks, if the Isa is also only increasing by 0.1% then Kent will look very tempting.

    They've just about done enough for me to stay put - for now! :mad:

    Unless things change, which is quite probable, I think I'll be shipping out in April though. ;)

    ............... eventually.

    Doesn't make up for last time's 0.15% though.
    Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.
