Lloyds Group and TSB make the same announcement on the same day, but they are completely separate banks in competition with eachother, and can't collude in any way.

No mention of BoS Vantage accounts - curious.0

It's in direct competition to TSB in Scotland.
TSB isn't a small challenger bank here.No mention of BoS Vantage accounts - curious.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -

The thread title is inaccurate.
People who keep less than £2k in a Club Lloyds account are getting their interest doubled. People who keep between £2k and £4k are not experiencing any change.DEBT FREE!
Debt free by Xmas 2014: £3555.67/£4805.67 (73.99%)
Debt free by Xmas 2015: £1250/£1250 (100.00%)0 -

Would it be too much to expect that, since it has not been mentioned, that nothing is changing (for the time being)?
It's only just changed in September (2 direct debits required). That'll be why.0 -
I hate when companies refer to market conditions and things like that. I know they have to operate that way but it does seem to create a vicious circle since other businesses doing the same thing will also reduce their interest rate or incentives.
It seems banks no longer want or need to pay customers for their funds, yet are content to charge exorbitant sums if someone wishes to lend from them. Halifax charges £1 per day for an authorized overdraft which I wouldn't touch with a barge pole.Mixed Martial Arts is the greatest sport known to mankind and anyone who says it is 'a bar room brawl' has never trained in it and has no idea what they are talking about.0 -
