Chorley BS 3.70%. Easy Access Saver. (Good news, as it might push a few other saving providers higher.)

Hi. Just a quick question. Does anyone know of instant or easy access accounts which allow for more than one linked or nominated account? I have Zopa which allows transfers to and from multiple linked accounts but does anyone know of any others?

Thanks for your answers.

I've got 5 linked accounts with Tandem, their CS can link non-Open Banking too e.g. Chase, Kroo etc

Kroo which pays 3.60% is a current account, not a savings account, so you can make payments to and from any/multiple accounts. They have a £10k daily limit of payments OUT of the account though.

Al Rayan everyday saver allows withdrawals to any accounts, but withdrawals made at weekends don't arrive until next working day.

Opened a Hanley Economic branch saver instore. Took 15 minutes. Even received online banking details within an hour via email. They have a mobile app too which is good to see.

Deposits can be made via debit card as well FP, SO, cheques etc. Withdrawals are not as bad as I thought; you can set up a nominated account and ask for payments to be sent across over the phone.

Overall very good service especially with such a big gap to the next best rate.

I'm chancing my luck by posting in the forms - hoping they'll open it for me. Did they tell you which number to call to request withdrawals over the phone please? They told me that the passbook must be present for the branch saver withdrawals to be processed, but I'm wondering if perhaps I need to speak to a different team to organise that.

They told me to phone the local branch and that the passbook was not required to withdraw. They did complete a form to link a nominated account, which I also had to sign.

@Karlie88 Did they say in particular which branch to call please? In order to help me decide how much to deposit, based on ease of withdrawal, I just called a couple and asked - the response was they can never take verbal instructions to move funds to a nominated account, they require the passbook and a wet signature through the post.
