Anyone think savings rates may have peaked? Worth going for a fix now?

I did on several occasions and went for it and was wrong every time I did it, good job I've committed very small proportion of my funds to fixed products.

9 months ago a 2.5% regular saver looked good, so did a 3% ISA......I wouldn't fix large sums or fix for long term. Any fixed accounts I do at the moment are less than 1 year.

Any idea why DF Capitals 4.55% easy access savings account no longer appears on MSE as a recommendation?

Every time I think of moving on from FM they keep upping the rate.. not much reason to move at that rate.

Good to hear - a tad below Shawbrook but far easier and quicker to deal with so I'll leave our lump in Ford - was considering moving it to Shawbrook

Have to give Ford Money credit they are always quick to update their rates. Just a shame they have such slow transfer speeds. Think will skip switching back for now and see what happens.
