The Top Easy Access Savings Discussion Area

When did aldermore decide to up their game? I'm kind of glad I didn't chase highest rates now and move money out the other week. I just keep a spreadsheet with the different accounts I use and an average of the interest rate. As long as the average is somewhere up around the top 10 I'm happy enough.

might be worth noting that their Bonus Saver (Issue 8) will go up to 4.60% on the same date - so paying a higher rate with unlimited withdrawals and £1 minimum balance.

The way I see it is that if I am going to be withdrawing say £2 from an EA account to cover a moneybox DD this takes just as much effort as reducing the EA account to the minimum balance. I've got to the point where I have most of the top paying EA accounts already so it only usually takes one or 2 extra faster payments to get the higher rate so I no longer have to open loads of new EA accounts regularly to get the top rates and due to my large collection of regular savers, it's rare I have much in EA accounts anyway so don't need to worry too much about payment limits. Even if it's only a few pence extra I'm getting, I think it worth the very little extra time and effort it takes to get the higher rate of interest.

Is this a loyalty account though?
TBF skipton is a provider I would like to ditch as not being able to access their website off '3' internet is a pain
