MSE reports that the Newcastle BS has said they will increase their savings rates by 0.50% on 25th August. See the link below, 2/3 down the page.

This suggests that their Triple Access account would increase to 2.00%

A lot can happen to other banks rates in 20 days. Please let us know when there is an actual 2% account.

Nationwide "working it out".

We're currently working out what this means for our members. It may have an effect on some of our mortgages and savings accounts.

I am confident that 2% will be offered within the next 20 days.

However, the July inflation announcement in 12 days will have cpi at 10% plus.

I might just have to open an account with Shawbrook. 

How are they for speed of deposits/withdrawals and do they tend to increase existing account rates normally or just bring out a new issue?

Thanks

T&Cs ...
The minimum account withdrawal amount is £500. (Where a withdrawal request is received prior to 2:30pm on a working day, your funds should be received into your nominated account on the next working day.)
