Savings Champion

I used this website to look at best savings rates and the Rate Tracker section to consolidate all my savings. I thought it was very good but 7 months ago my Rate Tracker login stopped working soon after I had added a new savings account. I spent all my working life in IT before I retired and immediately thought that I had blown a limit in the program for the number of accounts. I was told that other people had the same problem and that the IT system was being upgraded in approxiimately 6 weeks. However, despite many emails to and from the company I am still not able to get into the application and am still locked out! Does anybody else use Savings Champion Rate Tracker and had a similar problem?

I've seen Savings champion mentioned many times in articles and it seemed a bit pointless to me as it didn't show any of the accounts paying the best rates which appeared to be the whole purpose of it. Unfortunately as a result I've not used it since.

That's not my experience as I've compared it with other sites and it's always shown the best rates although limited to the top 5 in each category.

You don't need a login for Savings Champion either if you're only looking at rates. A login is only needed if you're entering all your savings accounts and that, sadly, is what is not working for me!

This seems to have the same issue I mentioned. I clicked on it and none of my accounts are shown there. It's probably great if you have £100k to find a home for but with £10k current accounts are the most logical home to get the best rate and they're not mentioned in the best buy table.

There is certainly a section for "High Interest Current Accounts" in the Savings Champion "Best Buy Tables". It's also referred to as "Personal Current Accounts".
