    When is the interest paid on Santander Edge easy access savings @ 7%? I transferred 4k in on 20th August but there’s no sign of any interest as yet. Thanks. 
    I opened mine in 15 Aug, received the interest on 16 Sept but it didn't show in the app until the early hours of the 17th. So yours will probably show by timorrow morning.
    you were correct.  :)

    So does anyone on here believe the banks don’t get the nod from the boe.
    Next you will be telling me politicians tell the truth and are not in if for the money and power.

    ... but if that were true they'd be swimming in money ... oops.

    Santander's 5.2% offering looking very good now for the many that have it after today's rate hold decision.
    Until they cut it!
    Why would they cut it, the boe rate didn't move down today?
    They may have depended on a rise when they set their rate.
     A bank depending on what might happen. I very much doubt that. 
    ALL fixed rates depend on forecasts of what might happen. Fact.

    No thats not how banking works. Its effectively the markets that the give the "nod" to the banks to adjust rates.

    Absolutely believe they don’t get the nod. It is very sensitive market information, affects stock and bond prices etc and would be tantamount to insider trading. 
  • I've just attempted to fund my Santander account, only to find my source account with Nationwide, limits transactions to £25000/day, as it is a 'new' account, despite me sending £1 to verify. Can anyone recommend an institution which does not have these ridiculous limits?

    Barclays is £50k per day for personal customers or £100k for Premier (using Online Banking rather than the App).

    This notes that Nationwide has this extra restriction, but most others do not.
