I wonder if anyone knows…

I have a Yorkshire Building Society Internet Saver Plus Issue 12 account. The interest is paid annually on 31 March. 

If I withdraw all my money before 31 March - will I still get paid the accrued interest for the year? 

Thanks in advance.

You will if you close the account.

If you close the account. you get all the accrued interest as part of the closing balance.

If you just withdraw the balance, the accrued interest will be paid on 31 March

Very surprised that chase havnt finally upped their rate. Yes they were the market leaders some time ago and took everyone’s money but I did expect maybe 1 increase. I check everyday in anticipation but nothing. Some have said ‘why should they’ increase rates as were miles ahead of the competition months ago…who knows they might do a straight to 2%….waiting.

Hey all,
Was looking to sign up to Raisin but notice it sets up a Starling account to fund whatever savings accounts are set up. I'm already with Starling for my main current acount so was wondering if this will cause any issues before I sign on the dotted line

You may try to avoid having more than the FSCS limit at any time in Starling (or any other bank).
