    Minimum £1,000 for every deposit?

    What an awful account for a mere 2.95%.

    Guessing they require manual processing rather than automated FPS etc so it guarantees a certain level of service. Don’t see the problem. 
  • Thanks for the suggestion of Shawbrook. I actually had an account with them last year which I closed - but I was still registered so opening a new account was a piece of cake  :) so now moving my money out of Marcus  ;)
  • Has anyone downloaded the OakNorth App.

    How are you finding the App? ( is it worth downloading)

    Shawbrook easy access account rises again

     now 3.01% on the website

    Get them secure messages sent again !
    Thanks for the heads-up yesterday. I am new to Shawbrook and sent my secure message at approximately 1:30pm - do you know how long it takes them to switch the account over? I see that the message says ‘read’. Many thanks! 
    I sent my message and within 1 hour they had changed my account over to the new higher issue 
    I ended up calling them today, they answered straight away and changed it instantly. Very impressed.

    Easy access 3.05% is only for balances over £20k

    I've used the app on 90 day notice account,  no problems at all, allows you to move issues if better rate comes available but they seem to up all issues at same time recently.

    Cheers

    I got straight through to Shawbrook customer services yesterday as well and two weeks ago when I upgraded from 30 to 32 and did the survey and gave them top marks on both occasions makes a change from CS at some other places

    I used their online secure message to get our account upgraded each time. It was done within 24 hours.

    Sainsbury's is a pain, you need to open a new account to get each new rate, and manually transfer the balance.

    Email. Gatehouse up to 2.96% from today. Surely this will give Al Rayan the push it needs..
