    Chase - We're increasing the interest rate to 2.1% AER effective from 24 October 2022
  • Email just in...

    Good news – we're increasing the Chase saver account interest rate from 1.5% AER (1.49% gross) variable to 2.1% AER (2.08% gross) variable, effective from 24 October 2022.

    Too little and far too late...
    Mortgage and debt free. Building up savings...

    2.1%. Hardly earth shattering when you consider Santander and Cynergy have reached 2.75% this week.

    Chase……another one who is too little, too late. Won’t be going back.

    I will keep using the Chase spending account for the 1% cash back, but certainly won’t be transferring my money bank from Santander for the Chase savings account

    Chase savings account is still a good pretend current account for bills though, as it supports direct debits and standing orders. Just slow app though.

    Email from Saga to say going up to 1.80% (inc bonus) from 19 Oct, not enough to tempt me back.

    It's been one heck of a week on the savings front.

    Also good for spending and cash withdrawals abroad. No longer good for savings
