"Better Best Bank Accounts! 0% overdraft, 6.5% in-credit & £100 sign-up bribes. Updated Article
The current account war's now white hot with the main two top accounts improving their offers. Alliance & Leicester's* added to its market leading year's 0% overdraft (it's still cheapest after a year too) by now paying the highest in-credit interest at 6.5%. Plus its 'refer a friend' offer's been improved to £40, so for every mate recommended you get £40 and so do they. Concurrently, Halifaxhas joined its sister Bank of Scotland offering a £100 bonus if you switch to it, making it top for those always in-credit who can't be bothered to recommend others, as it pays a high, 6.17% interest."
Am I being daft or do the bits in red not make sense? How is 6.17% higher than 6.5%??
Edit: Ignore me.. it says "high" not "higher". Doh!
