"That Marcus account should be slotted in at number 3 only for the fact you get instant access to your cash, and we all like that."
Santander, I have not tried to withdraw any money from them, other when I did a test withdrawal a couple of weeks ago soon after I opened the account. The withdrawal worked without problem (it was only for about £10 !)

No mention of Al Rayan bank paying 2.81% on Martin's tv show?
Almost as if sharia accounts were personae non gratae.

Find it strange that Marcus gets the mention tonight. They have been bottom of the charts for months for rates, slow to increase rates. And they put the rates up today, funny that... They were once good not anymore took my money out and closed my account.5

Think I might be being a bit dense here but I have a YBS internet saver plus v11 savings account. I don’t look at it much, just add money in every now & again.
On the last BoE rate rise I could have sworn the interest rate went up to 2.05% but when I checked it tonight, it’s 2.3%.When did this change? It was a very pleasant surprise0 -
Can a newbie ask a couple of questions please
Do you accrue interest up to the moment you make a withdrawal?
Do you start accruing interest at the moment you make a deposit?0 -

Herbalus said:SMASTOR said:Tandem Bank seem to want too much information IMO. Started to open a 1year saver with them, they took all the ID stuff address, DoB etc, then said now we need bank account details. Then they wanted Ac No, Sort Code, Ac Name - all standard - but then they wanted access granted to get these details and BALANCE info for 90 DAYS!!!
If I knew that at the beginning I never would have applied, or given any details. It seems super shady and I'm a little disappointed that it's one MSE recommends and has the asterisk * beside
Currently arguing with them about a GDPR removal of the information they got already. Haha.
when setting up my open banking link, it requires basic information to be shared from that bank account, but for me the options to share balance and transaction history was entirely optional and toggled off by default. So perhaps worth another check?Perhaps someone else who opens a new 1 year bond account could let us know.
I only posted here to help others out, so if I've got it wrong please let me know. Thanks0 -
