Back on topic. Coventry limited access account is available via Hargreaves Landsown at 3.14%. Minimum deposit £1.

Another perk of this account is that it can be funded by debit card.

Marcus are annoying on their 3% rise. Think they can con people increasing their rate on the morning of the BOE decision. Too little, too late. Still leaving 1p in my account and the money is elsewhere earning more.

Coventry limited access pays 3.25% if you deposit directly.

It is unnecessary to keep 1p on the account.  My balance has been £0 for a couple of years now and the account is still alive.

Markets are now betting on a 0.25 rise this week after the unexpected inflation rise. Source Telegraph.

Think my £1 can stay there for now, wonder how much people actually keep there given the rate is a bit low?

I should have noticed that given that I have recently opened 2 of that very same account (1 monthly and 1 annual interest)!

It's been one of those weeks.

At least it's an option for debit card deposits I suppose.

The beauty of Marcus is true instant access 24/7/365 and does not need an app.

Actually any withdrawal transactions you do between 23:00 and 00:00 are held over until the next day.    It can be useful if you want to make sure money will be in your current account by the next morning, but don't want to stay up till midnight to do it, you can do it at 23:00 !
