    Hahaha…..everyone who has moved their money out of Zopa will be posting on here about moving back and setting up ladders again :-)
  • I fully appreciate Nationwide can do whatever they like with their savings rates, but this wording really makes them look rather silly. They need four weeks to get their heads round a simple base rate increase? Pull the other one!
    Agreed, they did exactly the same after the previous BOE rise, and then the message was just removed completely.

    Zopa have a history of applying interest rate increases and responding to the competition. With that in mind, it is best not to stop the ladder system but carry on (I do a new 95 day pot every Monday), even when rate isn`t so competitive and then you are ready to benefit from any increase. The good thing is that Zopa apply the rate increase to all your pots, so that I now have a 3.47% account with maximum 7 day access.

    I'm disappointed to see Nationwide still referring to a base rate change notice on their website from 2nd Feb saying they're "working out what this means for our savings members".

    It’s very disappointing. IIRC, Nationwide haven’t increased most of their variable rates since 01/12/2022
