george4064 said:I have a Shawbrook Easy Access - Issue 14 - Monthly, however the account name has 0.05% at the end of it. I received a text message this morning from Shawbrook saying my Easy Access Account interest rate has been increased to 1.51%.
Do I need to message Shawbrook to upgrade my account or can I just transfer funds to my existing issue 14 displaying 0.05% but I’ll actually earn 1.51%?if you look at their archived rates PDF, it looks as though they automatically increase existing issues with the newer rates.
however, I think the only time you should receive 0.05% for this account, would be if you have less than the minimum £1,000 opening balance.Interest rate for balances of £1,000 or more: 1.51% GROSS (monthly/variable);1.52% AERInterest rate where the balance falls below the minimum account opening balance: 0.05% Gross/AER (monthly/variable).if you have more than £1k in the account, then it might be worth getting in touch with Shawbrook; if it's less than £1k, then I think you'll continue to just get 0.05%.1 -
