    Hi all.  Got an Atom instant saver account @ 3.88% which I want to withdraw the balance out of but leave a £1 in it just in case it improves in the future.  I can't find in the t&c's if I can leave £1 in it or not?  I remember there being £50 minimum to open the account.  Anyone have any experience of this please? 
    Just my opinion, no offence 🐈

    Taking 11K from Chip & putting it into Tandem once the new rate shows for me...

    I usually transfer into Tandem via bank transfer but would it be quicker via open banking? It states on Tandem app that open banking best for smaller deposits...is 11K small?

    It stopped working for me last night so I switched my phone off and on again and that sorted it. It's still working for me this morning.
