Remember Skipton's Base Rate Trackers:

Issue 3 (BR-0.9, NLA) should rise to 3.35% from 6th April at the latest (Decision Day +14).

Issue 4 (BR-1.1) should rise to 3.15% from 6th April at the latest.

These have now taken effect.

Sainsbury’s Bank Defined Access Saver Issue 41

1.15% paid at £1, 3.22% paid at £1K, 1.00% paid at £500001

I think it may now be TOTP no.10 @soulsaver

Just read that Tandem are paying 3.5% Easy Access. Never used Tandem before……any pros/cons?

If you have say £10k then its an effective rate of 3% as the first £1k only earns 1.15%.

Yeah, 3.5%. Time to open a Tandem account. Zopa might increase rates...

I wonder if Zopa will quickly respond like last time? Maybe wishful thinking on my part.

same here, but just chatting to them and they say that all existing accounts will be receiving 3.5% from today and the app should update sometime today or tomorrow to show the increased rate.

It's on their website. My app also shows 3.2% but guess will get update/email soon.
Nice to see a bit of competition.

It's app only, and payments in/out from nominated and validated (by open banking) account(s) only.

But payments in and out are quick.
