    I understand that CHIP are going to pay their bonuses as proper, compounding, FSCS covered interest soon.
    I have heard rumours of that, too. Have you seen anything concrete though, and do you know how soon is soon?
    Annoyingly the only thing I can remember about the source was that it was a trustworthy one. Possibly the MSE website itself?

    Think Coventry is still the best option. I wish they had an app, but I think the .25% difference between that and the closet rival with an app is too much to turn down. Any less and I might not go for it.

    Spokesperson from the company has confirmed this is a priority in a post onto their investor community page.

    Do we think the Coventry BS will be busy on Friday / over the weekend? (or does the 6 access put people off)
    Website potentially busy with people late to the party opening accounts, and those already in moving money and trying to check their balance?

    Might move some money over tomorrow instead incase the website can't cope with heavy traffic on Friday
