I'm tempted potentially to move my savings into a better savings account. I'm currently using Tandem bank which is no longer on the highest interest list of easy-access savings accounts.. Thoughts people?

I think a lot of people will wait for the dust to settle after the Bank of Englands decision on baste rate tomorrow.

A tablespoon of melted butter every 30 minutes should do it.

I also missed an apostrophe but this poxy new editor won’t let me correct my mistakes. It throws an error saying

A little nuance on this one which some people might miss. Especially important for those that are very focussed on how quickly deposits/withdrawls take place (my highlight).

"If you make a payment into your Account by Electronic Payment, we will apply it to your Account on the day we receive it. If we receive it after 1pm, we will apply it [to] your Account on the next Working Day."

Existing customers can open the EA by calling 020 7862 6222 M-F 9-5 or email existingcustomer@htb.co.uk quoting your phone no(s) they have on file. Plus an existing account no I'd suggest.

Open an account with Kroo if you haven’t got one already, but do it via topcashback (£15 offer). Decent rate come June (3.6% AER, currently 3.33% AER).
