    Only if you are on the 4% offer (which is no longer available).

    Oh well, 3% is still better than other savings account I can find ;)

    A lot of people seem to be wrong then. (EDIT: this doesn't mean that you have any legal grounds on which you could insist on interest on more than one).

    You can uncross them - not happening - only get interest on one account - I asked her to speak to a supervisor - and she came back with the same answer :(

    I did not push it because if too many people do that they may withdraw it from others ;)

    What they say happens isn't always what happens in practice!

    What have you got to lose by opening another? Just bung £100 in it, and if you get the 5% rate then great!...if you don't, what have you lost?...20p and a bit of time?

    Obviously the forum members would be looking for some feedback on the 1st June. ;)
