I'm talking about the option of  turning off seeing other posters sigs. Too many are several sentences .NOT necessarily turning off one's own.
I'd  forgotten I ever had one because I don't see my own as well.

Yes thanks again, I had figured it out  . Useful option.

Marcus and Atom appear to have receded from competition, despite both being heavily focused on savings...

I have savings maturing from Atom next month, the 1.5% fixed deal they had for a week or so last year. Like quite a few on here.
To be honest I thought I would be going with them again as their rates have been the best or second best for month after month 
That seems to have stopped now.
It’s time to ditch and switch by the look of things.
Stash the cash in an easy access or notice pot and wait for December, when I hope 4% plus will be available.

Mine are spread. Easy Access. Notice 31 and Notice 90/95

No fresh fixes since March 2022. Better deals likely to come, just no idea when will be the "peak".

Nationwide Fixed ISA is next up. Matures Sept after earning a magnificent 0.75% for the last 18 months 🤦‍♂️

You can also add Nationwide "on your side" to the list.

I can't wait for my Nationwide fixed isa to mature...I think I should have closed it earlier and taken the penalty, but who knew!

I will transfer it into my flexible isa, then withdraw it to Zopa until I can find a good fix.

My flexible isa will soon be better than than Zopa but I'm up to the max in there, so need 2 good fixed isas for a year.

Just logged in to my paragon account:

Easy Access Issue 3: 1.60% to 1.85%
Triple Access ISA Issue 8: 1.55% to 1.85%.

Very happy with the latter in particular. 

Ditto re the ISA :-) I know this is an (the?) EA thread but people may be interested to know that the Paragon Triple Access ISA Issue 8 was Top Of The Cash ISA Pots at 1.55% so it's quite some move on their part. For information only, not discussion obviously as this is EA. 

Paragon Ltd Ed Easy Access Issue 7 is now 1.83% though Paragon's email about the change said it was to be 1.85%.
