FWIW, Charter issue 40 - an underwhelming/paltry 4%.

So many NBS accounts opened and about 30 pages of posts about them only to get beaten by Shawbrook 
And then probably Tandem and therefore Chip.

Unusually, the Newcastle BS account is a -0.7% tracker, so it is worth holding with a £1 deposit.

The biggest advantage of the NBS account wasn't because it wasn't going to be (slightly) overtaken in the initial weeks that followed.

Yes unattractive for many.  Irritatingly and typically of Charter Savings Issues 30 - 39 all with updated rates below the new Issue 40 at 4%.  I can only think that this is trying to catch out savers of Issues 30-39 who, seeing their email with their hyped increase, will perhaps not know that a new 4% issue is available if they were to check.  I suppose that is their chosen 'business model' but perhaps some might say it smacks of sharp practice.
