    Why can't I find the Skipton bonus saver 4.35% on the app?
    It seems to be 4.45%. Apply online ~ https://www.skipton.co.uk/savings/easy-access/bonus-saver
    Is that issue 7? when did the rate rise?
    Clicked link you quoted says Issue 8, HTH   :)

    Bonus Saver Issue 8 - I can’t remember, but check the no chat thread and this thread and you’ll find the first posting


    If you have issue 7, your rate should be displayed in the app/online.

    I opened the account Friday and funded it today, it shows interest as 4.45% so there should not be a need to ask them to do anything - as long as the account is funded.

    Same for me, only showing 3.83% gross and I put £1.01 in via Debit Card and payment isn't fully cleared yet.
    I think payment through card is why the rate is 3.83%. but seems arbitrary. If DC payment is not cleared yet (may take upto 2 days, as per general Ts&Cs) why show reduced rate?

    I will ring them up tomorrow to confirm & will post update later.

    RE: Skipton Bonus saver. I funded by debit card and it takes about 2 working days for the money to be payable. The lower rate was showing until today, it is now at the advertised bonus rate.

    "Sainsbury’s Defined Access New Issue 47 - will show on their site in the morning."

    Thanks for the info, Issue 47 opened and contents of issue 46 transferred.  Moved a chunk out of issue 46 yesterday to Skipton, should have known Sainsbury would up their offering

    From the updated Chip terms and conditions:

    • Section 15.1.7: addition to cover that excessive deposits and withdrawals (i.e. spamming the app) is a breach of our acceptable behaviour terms.

    Have you thought about looking into better-paying alternatives to that type of account ? You'll get around 1% more with Zopa (for example) who allow up to 10 pots, IIRC. They're not among the highest-paying easy access accounts at the moment though so there may be other banks I'm not aware of, who also offer accounts with pots.
