All these posts by individuals telling us which accounts they have emptied and where they have transferred the money to really aren't adding anything positive to the thread, and just makes it harder to find the occasional nuggets of useful information that are buried here. 

You`re right and I can`t believe people are moving "loads of money" every time a higher rate comes out.
On the other hand people like to know other`s experiences of providers they`ve never been with.

I`ve never been with Paragon and would like others views because the likes of Trustpilot is hardly reliable.

There is a no chat thread, as I`m sure you`re aware.

This morning I reduced Cynergy 2.9% to £1, funds in current account instantaneously, may be useful information for anyone who values truly instant access.

Subsequent transfer to Shawbrook 3.05%, SMSs confirming receipt after about 2 hours (multiple as >£25k current account limit).

I think they help, it gives an idea what others are doing. 
If providers are not competitive I am out of there. I too emptied the last bit from Zopa today.

On the contrary, I think it is very useful

Sorry for the post i've not been following recently. I just checked the Top of the Pots post and see accounts in early 3% however I logged into my Skipton Double access and its at 3.25%. Has this gone NLA or something hence not being listed?

Is the account listed on Skipton’s website as available?

I didn't check. Just logged in and checked my interest rate. Others here must have the same account surely?

Goodbye Zopa, 10 min job for 2 accounts...

I should've given my 7 day notice earlier but your post just reminded me.

Will move it all across to Chase again shortly.

it looks like it's been withdrawn - there's a PDF on the Skipton site that lists Issue 1 & 2 of the Double Access Saver in their closed accounts (paying 3.25% over £10k)... it's dated today (13th Feb).

The 3.25% limited access 6 account wasn't available long. I was replaced with the lower rate limited access 7 account 2.85%, which has also been withdrawn to new applicants.

You are of course correct. Must do better
