Monthly snapshot for reference/interest only, usual disclaimers... and happy clock-change/Easter/long weekend!First table is soulsaver's top 10 at the time of posting*, second table of True EAs are soulsaver-eligible accounts that can be opened and maintained with £1 and allow unlimited deposits and withdrawals, third table of True Instant EAs are those True EAs that advertise instant access to funds (up to 3 hours, but usually within minutes, 24/7). Colours highlight changes compared to last month's scorecard: red is for a decline in interest rate, green for a rise in interest rate, blue for new entries for each table.Secure Trust and Post Office are taking the opportunity amongst this month's carnage to shore up funds, though given what's happened to the other providers, we'll see how long they last.We're at an interesting point where the gap between the bottom of the first table is not too far from the top of the third table. The gap might continue to narrow for now but I suspect will grow again once the base rate starts dropping.* @soulsaver hasn't currently marked Virgin Money as #5 but I think that's just an error.9

I know strictly speaking it's an ISA and has been mentioned before but I just moved from the (soon to reduce in May) Easy Access Santander to Zopa Smart Isa 5.08% AER (4.96% gross) variable including bonus rate until 6th April 2025 but you need to open it by 5th April to get the bonus rate.
You can move up to £40k if you're quick - 20k by 5th April and up to 20k after.
I already had the Zopa app for a previous account and so it was quick to set up and even if you don't need the tax exemption it seemed a good place to put it for now if you haven't used your ISA allocation - can easily access or move out if needed later.0 -
@Patr100, I’ve done exactly the same as you, am moving my money from Santander 5.2% to the Zopa 5.08% ISA, although I’m tempted to move it back after April 5th to Santander to get an extra few weeks at the 5.2%.0
