    Thanks @typistretired - but none of those now shown on their web so NLA?  (Y I know like Tesco) - Plus 7 superseded by Plus 10 and 0.82 for £50k.

    So I'll add the Plus 10 on which is available to new applicants which will drop the Tesco off :smile:
    Let me know if any of the others are still available to open. And even if not the post is appreciated & helps with info should people want to move.

    PS I'm not intending to keep this running... It looks like it could take up too much time.

    Essentially triple access with tiered interest rates.



    Not good enough to trouble the top of the league but better than others in the top ten if you have more than £1000 and if you're struggling with deposit limits at Chase they will take deposits up to £2M   (a problem we'd all like to have)

    Money Facts 'best easy acs', sorted by AER, shows Investec 0.93 at the top of the page.  Why is it not Chase Saver?

    I know but they're effectively contriving to hide the information IMO.

    Investec 32 day notice has risen on my app tonight from 0.95 to 1.2 percent. That'll help mitigate me waiting for my bonus before withdrawing it for Chase.
