The problem with raisin is that you have to request a withdrawal from the offering bank to your raisin account and then to your bank. IME can take a week. Not so easy access.Steve_xx said:GB bank via Raisin are offering 3.65% easy access, with a minimum deposit of £1000.1 -
Is withdrawal by post and by cheque really 'easy access'?
I don't see as such.1 -

Yes. I'm just thinking really, although the products are different, CHIP might have hurt feelings as they are no longer at the top of the MoneyFacts comparison table 😂Band7 said:

I haven't yet made my mind up wether to open a HEBS account although I'm leaning towards the idea that I can't really be bothered given the restrictions.
