Yessss.....I applied just over a week ago and logged in tonight and I have the 1.50% rate until Sept 5th 2020. Will have to remember to renew the month before, assuming they will still honour it! A great account this for drip feeding

Variable aspect of the rate can still be reduced

The lower bonus rate only applies to new applicants, not existing customers.

So this statement of yours was wrong?

I don't believe so, if read accurately in context.

I have had the Marcus 1.5% just two weeks short of 1 year. I looked round the site, reviewed my savings rate and have transferred to 1.45%. Email confirmed. So existing customers can get that rate.
GOOD SHOUT, OP that mentioned it.

My bonus period expired on 30 Dec. I tried renewing before it expired, and again this morning, but it says no bonus period is available.


So maybe the renewing bonus thing has finished now.

They have stopped the bonuses, just a standard rate now:
