Yes new pots available but no advantages on current rates.

Agreed. I've not tried the new feature because my money is elsewhere, earning 0.20% to 0.23% more.

Pence, I know, but extra in my pocket, eventually 😊

@flaneurs_lobster, one is the yearly interest rate and one is the monthly interest rate. I had the same email as @Bigwheels1111 for the monthly interest rate reduction.

Re: Ford Money Flexible Saver... just received an email from them that for those already with the account, the rate will drop to 4.85% AER / 4.75% monthly) on 17th January 2024 - in other words, that's the 30-day interest rate decrease notice that will bring the account into line with the current rate new applicants receive today.

I'm now getting a second round of emails for each Ford Money account saying the effective date of the drop is January 18th... no reason given for the two different dates.
