It would appear Skipton Building Society have just pulled their 2.65% easy access saver account. Snooze you loose these days!

It's a concern isn't it. I really thought we'd be looking at several 3% accounts by now, not losing the former highest ones. I guess they've collected enough money.

Very annoying although I guess mortgage rates are also down on their peak. I personally have enough room in my 3% accounts that I don’t need more at this level but I also thought rates might be pushing up a bit better than this.

Every decent rate gets withdrawn and the instant market stays stalled. Definitely starting to look like time to get regular savers or a fix.

Aldermore 3.00% Double Access; 
Aldermore E. A. 2.75% (launched 11/11, NLA 16/11)

If you click the link, it says they are not accepting applications at this time, but, if you are logged in, it appears to allow you (me) to apply for both - implying these are still available to existing customers?

I can't test this conclusively as I already hold both accounts.

Y, Iss #2 is 2.35%.

Iss #1 is still 2.65%, but NLA.

I opened a Skipton EA a couple of days ago and got 2.62% which is still showing as my interest rate in the app, but if I tap to open a new account it is now 2.35%.

Newbury Existing Member's Account Rate due to go from 2.3% to 3% from 7th December.

Also payment allowance increased from £2,000 to £4,000 between now and 5th April 2023 - although so far that's for this financial year only as the base terms still say £2,000 per year.

That's because the former, issue 1, is NLA. And the latter is issue 2

Just for info: The Moneyfacts.co.uk website is currently undergoing site maintenance. Presumably it will be back up and running again as usual by tomorrow morning.

Seems to be working fine for me at the moment....

I posted Aldermore a bank statement as they couldn't verify my linked account.  Now I've had an email saying they haven't received it... so ridiculous when I've had accounts with them in the past.
