Closed Chase Nov boosted and opened Jan boosted in 2 minutes. Thanks All

Is this what everyone is experiencing?  Last thing I want to do is close my 5.1% boosted Nov Chase savings and then not be able to get the 5.1% on the new account?

Thanks

Yep, transferred funds to current a/c, close Boost 1, it will ask if you want interest sent to your current a/c, confirm closure, go back to main screen and the offer to open boost 2 is there.

You don't need to transfer out first though.

Thanks for the explanation.

Sorry, what do you mean by 'You don't need to transfer out first though' ? -  You mean just do closure and they will transfer the balance plus interest to the current account ?

yes, when closing the account, they ask you if you want to transfer the balance to another Chase account (current or savings).

i've just done this - closed the #1 bonus saver (Nov 24); the balance (+interest) got transferred to the normal chase 4.1% saver; opened the #2 bonus saver (Jan 25) and transferred the balance across (minus £1) to the new bonus saver.

I just did testing a few times from my Lloyds Account to Chase Booster saver @5.1% and vice versa. It arrives instantly.

whats the "complicated eligibility"? i haven't used my Chase account in months but do have the 5.1% offer.

Note: Chase Saver. 5.10% boosted tracker saver until November/January; App only; Complicated eligibility, so may not get ranking. See here for discussion.*
