    Tandem still not showing in the MF list, they should be second place.

    It’s because of the bonus - they are at 3.75% on the listing, and the bonus is explained in the information pane

    Hmm, that explains it. Might also explain why they had for ages their listing higher up as a sponsored post.

    Out of interest I wonder why Marcus and Sagas rate gets listed including the bonus and Tandem without.

    Looks like Marcus and Saga automatically add the bonus - tandem does not

    With Marcus you have to renew it yourself.

    I mean initially - for straight after the account is opened.

    Tandem do automatically add the new rate as long as top up is on.
    They updated my East access to 4.1% today.

    Re Tandem - AFAIK when you first open an account with them, you have to manually add the bonus.

    With Marcus and Saga, AFAIK when you first open an account with them, the bonus is automatically added.

    May be wrong on either one of these - but hopefully this clarifies my point as to why M & S appear at a certain position on the league tables that T does not.
