    0.5%?

    Am I missing something?

    Maybe you are...maybe you're not.

    Those magical few hours on the 19th of certain months.....:D

    I wonder if they'll be doing the same for the in-branch versions too? Will be interesting to see if they do a 3% E-Saver, either starting this month or next month.
    I consider myself to be a male feminist. Is that allowed?

    Right - I now understand but that's counting your chickens that things don't change with their systems.

    I hope you're right.

    Regular e saver 7 key product information states "Rates are fixed until after the maturity date. This means we cannot change the rate until after the fixed rate period". Hopefully Virgin can get round this somehow? This is good news especially if 8,9,10,11,12 follow!

    That reads as if the decision is out of their control which of course it isn't. But it's refreshing anyway. Perhaps they should make it read 'we cannot decrease...'

    I've just received the same announcement for Virgin's Regular E-Saver Issue 8. Same 2.50% starting from September 1st. Looks like they might be going through each issue one at a time

    Thank you Virgin

    Blimey, just had the same email about Issue 9

    Only 3 to go :)

    All of the Virgin RS holders in the UK are poised, fingers ready to tap, to be the first to announce that they've had the e-mail for Issue 12.

    No cheating allowed, no preparation with the e-mail already written please. That wouldn't be fair.
