Thanks once again ForumUser7! As I've mentioned elsewhere, well done Nationwide for once! The 2 year and 3 year fixed rate online bonds both have very competitive interest rates currently, with the rate for the 3 year online bond - 4.75% AER being better than any other currently available 3 year fixed rate savings account, I do believe.ForumUser7 said:Nationwide has released some new rates.

Random question which may be for another board, if I opened a 3 year fixed rate and died before the term had finished would my beneficiaries receive the full fixed rate for the period that the account had been open ? NW t&C's seem to suggest that there would be no penalty for withdrawing funds and no loss of interest.0

Shawbrook now need to up it's easy saver to match the competition. It's no good stuck at 1.81%. Marcus is just hopeless.0

Yes, death of the account holder is always written into the T&Cs for fixed rate accounts as one of the few reasons for the balance being released before the end of the term. I would presume that interest earned up until that point would be added.Bobziz said:Random question which may be for another board, if I opened a 3 year fixed rate and died before the term had finished would my beneficiaries receive the full fixed rate for the period that the account had been open ?

The mimimum opening amount for Al Rayan is £5k, if I then reduce the balance to less than £5k what would happen? Would I not generate any interest?0
