Santander Isa rates

Looking at what's out there, 2% instant access would be a dream.

Can't see it myself, and even if they do, they will be swamped by funds in days.

1.75% looks to be the best to hope for.

Got to love the FLS.

So what are we hoping for - 1 year bonus instant access at 2% and 2 year fix at 2.25% for 1-2-3 account holders and 25 basis points less for everyone else, all allowing transfers in?

I dunno - look at what coop bank have launched (although they are no doubt short of a bob or two) My 5 year 30 day access 5% fixed from Newcastle comes to an end this August

A two year lock-in @ 3% with a free Rolls Royce for every filled subscription and a foot massage whilst you wait would be nice.

I would only accept that offer if it came with a free perm and blue rinse for my nan.

Seems you might get your wish for the 2-year fix - 2.3% is being bandied. Unspecified terms for this, so we just have to wait until they do announce them. http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=64891568&postcount=73

Interesting I have just checked the 'goto' rate for my 'direct isa saver (issue 1)' - this was the 2.5% account launched at this time last year and after 12 months it will become an 'isa saver' paying 1.5% over 10k and 2% over 25k and accepts transfers in
