    Which may mean they don't intend to increase the rate too generously to keep up with Coventry etc.

    For those who still have the Cambridge BS your saver account (NLA for a few months now), the interest rate is now showing as 2.65%. I don't know when the rate increased as it's been over 2 months since I last logged in. Not earth shattering but I thought it worth a mention.
    many thanks for that - I don't think the increase had been mentioned here previously... I certainly wasn't aware of it until I read your post and the other thread about it.
    for those that still have the account, it's worth remembering that the annual interest will be paid out on 31st December.

    Or they are freezing the previous issue to limit the cost of their next rise

    Cynergy only pays interest annually.
  • "Applied" for Coventry 6 access account. Well, site says they insist on sending you a paper form, anyway. Not received any email whatsoever to acknowledge the "start of application". 
    Is that normal for them?

    Good luck with this. I applied for account with them 2 weeks ago and have received nothing. Yes, you apply online by completing the application form they then send it to you for you to return it - logical!!!! NOT. Then they open the account, then they send you a telephone pass code by post so you can register online. I have given up on them and told them so. I have gone elsewhere and opened account, set it up, registered and funded it in less than 10 minutes

    All done online on Weds. No paper involved. £1 deposited an online access available within hours. I had to generate my own telephone passcode during the application - not that I intend using it.
