    I understand continually moving monies to chase the best EA rates can be a little time consuming it’s no biggie. 

    It’s all very individual some will move accounts for a 0.1-0.3% gain, and that’s either because their balance is high or they just do it out of principal and whatever each of us decide is right for us.

    what I’m not as sure on is why some seem to aggrieved at certain institutions not passing in rate raises. 

    Every lender has their own goals and criteria for how much money they need and want to bring in at any one time based on what they need the money for. If an institution isn’t upping rates it’s easy as pie to switch

    The point is that we shouldn't have to keep switching. They get us in on a good rate, then don't raise the rates even though the BoE rate has moved up 1% in some cases, eg Virgin Money

    Oxbury -> 4%
    4.11% now 👍

    I guess that is partially prempting the rate rise tomorrow, which some think may be 0.5% and I hope they do. It still will be miles from taming inflation - they need to get to 10% plus

    Fingers crossed - hoping YBS and Coventry will announce their increases on the day again. Easy Access competition is mad right now, hoping to see similar levels of activity in the regular saver thread too!

    Hanley EBS Branch Saver will likely be increasing 1st July - hoping for 5.00% (a 50 basis point bank base rate increase)

    YBS certainly need to. The Rainy Day A/C is looking seriously off the mark.
