I'm glad I opened Aldermore whilst I could. If all goes according to plan I should have about 99% of my savings at 3% or above by the end of the week with nearly £8k of that at 5% or above. With Al Rayan, Gatehouse, Santander, Cynergy and Sainsbury's on standby with minimal balances at 2.75% or above just in case.

When I tried to transfer money from santander to investec it blocked it even though I had made numerous transfers previously. Others like atom, tandem no problems .

I also haven’t received any interest yet from Santander esaver, I was expecting it this morning. Do you know if it’s paid into an external bank account or added to the balance on the esaver? Either way I’ve not had it.

I received interest from Santander on Saturday. Exactly one month from the day the account was opened. It was added to the account.

Did you definitely select monthly interest ? The rate will be 2.72% if you want a quick way of checking.

Yes definitely and just double checked 2.72%…. I’ll give them till tomorrow then chase it up

Mine didn't credit until the day after the anniversary but was dated for correct day. I'd say it will probably appear tomorrow morning with today's date on...

There is a specific thread for this account but it seemed to credit at around 00:00 CET of the day after one calendar month from the day of opening and it credits back to the eSaver.

I applied for the account on Tues 11 Oct and received confirmation that the account was approved/open on Wed 12 Oct (just after 3 PM). I didn't receive interest until this morning, Mon 14 Nov. I assumed I wouldn't receive interest over the weekend, which was seemingly the case for me.

I'm also on monthly paid out interest. Interest was credited later Friday .
I'd give it a day or two to go through.
