Or in the app (Android?)

Select the account

Then 3 dots top right

View bonus options

NB you don't have to do this to get the 1.15%, but doing this extends how long you get the 0.1% bonus for.

Whoops! - I have the full £2,000 in my Virgin Money account.  I thought it was 2% for some reason ??

It's up to £1,000 in the VM current account that earns 2.00% interest and up to £25,000 in the VM saver that earns 1.00%.

There is no £2,000 limit anywhere.

Sorry, I was getting confused.  Yes, I meant £1,000 in the VM current account.  That is OK then if it is 2%.  I moved my savings account a while ago now when higher than 1% became available.

Does Tandem allow you to automate them pulling a certain amount from the connected bank account each week/month?

No they don't but you could easily do it by Standing Order

Edited thanks.

Last week someone on here told me they got a text from shawbrook saying they had upped their easy access to 1%

Even thought it’s still 0.89% on the website 

I sent a message to them about this and today I finally got a reply- mine is now also 1%

Still 0.89% on website!
