    I've found Coventry Building Society and Yorkshire Building Society have tended to release new rates less than an hour after the BoE decision in recent rate rises - hopefully this happens again today.
    If you want me to definitely see your reply, please tag me @forumuser7 Thank you.

    be interesting to see who is off the blocks first with rate rises.

    I see the Sainsbury's Defined Access Saver Issue 33 has been removed 
    Went NLA 28/10. 
    I opened on 27th so got in just in time then! :)
    Taxes are no longer a certainty in life.

    The Sharia rates have to have priced in a lot of this increase,  I suspect the early announcements will be the other banks matching them.  Could be a wait to break 3%.

    Problem is that with easy access there are a lot of us rate tarts that will just move to the best rate, so I could see the big players waiting and see if they get significant withdrawals before moving.

    Ooooh do tell, I wouldn't mind not paying taxes anymore.
    If you believe you can, you will. If you believe you can't, you won't.

    Secured/Unsecured loans x 1 
    Credit Cards x 8 (total limit £55,050)
    Creation FS Retail Account x 1
    Creation Credit Sale 0% x 1 = £112.50pm x 20 mths
    0% Overdraft x 1 (£0 / £250)
    Mortgage Outstanding - £137,707.00 (Payment 13/360)
    Total Debt = £7,400 (0%APR) @ £100pm - Stoozing

    Announcing straight away that you will increase rates ... but not for almost a month is more than a little bit blatant.

    Please don't bother moving your money as we are matching rates - but we want a month to profit off you first,  Thanks.
    Agreed, but at least they have told people, very quickly, what they are going to do...

    How do the sharia accounts make money? Is it just disguised interest?
