    Cheers, I got 3.0% with the Post Office. Have gone from Saga to the Post Office - both were best for me/us at the time. No trendy new young banks here. I think the world is trying to tell me something about my age....... (quite apt really as this is for my newly accessed pension cash!)
    @jpmurf Glad you've found one - just to mention, it is 0.80% with an added 2.20% bonus for the first year 
    'After 12 months the rate will revert to our underlying rate, currently 0.80% gross/AER variable.'
    So make a note to review after 12 months (if you haven't done so already)
    If you want me to definitely see your reply, please tag me @forumuser7 Thank you.

    I may have missed this posted elsewhere and it does have some hoops, but the NatWest digital regular saver is now 6% not 5%. https://www.natwest.com/savings/digital-regular-saver.html

    Posted here even though it’s a regular saver, because it is instant access for withdrawals even though you’re limited on the amount you can put in each month. 
    A good number of regular savers are instant access for withdrawals, so don't need mentioning here.

    It is the highest rate out of those that do though.

    Good spot - I was very surprised when I saw about their increase

    Just going to ask exactly the same question - even an online search failed to bring anything up.

    Over the last year Coventry have been very good about increasing their 4/6 access savers after each BoE raise - maybe a few weeks after - so there's been much less need to shuffle money around than with most other EA accounts - but the recent issue was at a lower rate and they haven't been so quick in announcing rises this time - so it's possible EA accounts like this might be approaching their peak.

    I added the above to the No Chat thread - thought I'd redirect the temptation to mention the past poor performance to here.

    Note: Not got a good CS/technical history/reputation on MSE forum.
  • Does anybody have any news about Al-Rayan topping up to 3ish? Historically have always been consistent and upped their rates but maybe not this time with the fine they got from Boe?
