    Their first increases in nearly 3 months, with timing near the BoE announcement almost as interesting as Marcus. Note the top tiers of their Issue 11/12 Internet Saver Plus will remain 0.1% higher than the available Issue 13 and are still among their accounts that don't have a lower rate for balances above 20K.

    6 days over 2 months TBF! 
    The difference between YBS and Marcus is that the former's rates were already competitive and are now even better, the Loyalty 6 up to 3.75% and the Christmas Regular up to 4.75%, thank you very much. Whereas Marcus rate was woefully adrift and the increase to 3.0% yesterday still pitiful.

    That 3.75% is where Coventry limited access needs to be as they skipped a rise last time - over the year until then they had been following BoE rises

    Looks like the 5% First Home Saver is staying at 5% :-(

    That Coventry limited access news is disappointing - that's just a 0.1% rise after nearly 3 months - since December the issue 6 has gone up by 0.5% while base rates have risen 1.25%, it doesn't seem likely that'll be enough to beat top EA accounts for long.
