    Yes, me too!

    Now it will be lower interest and no more contactless cashback. I need to be on the lookout for something new

  • I can't understand why people get in a quandary about end of month dd and transfers when there are week-ends\bank holidays - just set up all dds and transfers for the middle of the month (any dates between 5th - 25th) and you'll never have a problem

    As have I. Then I moved it straight over to ratesetter and put it on the rolling market at 3%.

    So I currently have £3k in my TSB classic+, which in turn is funding my First Direct Reg Saver @ £300pm.

    I've had a little look about, but can't see any better than TSB for an instant access account to also fund the FD Reg Saver.

    Does anyone know better than me on this?

    My (our) savings have been decimated by all these cuts to rates.


    Santander we've lost £1,008 a year across 3 accounts
    TSB we've lost £365
    Halifax lost £24
    Total income loss is £1,397


    And that's just current accounts, let alone regular savers and cash ISAs which have been obliterated too.




    In return my mortgage rate drop of 0.25% has only brought savings of approx. £500 a year.






    Although my S&S ISA has done rather well post-Brexit
