Monese & "WeltSparen"

Options
Recently signed up with Monese which I'm fairly happy with, although doesn't have the full deposit protection scheme. But other day got a message from them, to say they have joined up with something called " WeltSparen", which translated from German means World Saving. Apparently a savings account with that they do offer the full deposit protection and also pay higher interest rates than most, getting best rates from across various European Banks. Sounds ok although no actual examples of interest rates were given. Anyone joined this WeltSparen thingy and has some info?

    From a quick Google it appears to be another name for Raisin, which has been thoroughly covered on MSE.

    Try a slow search instead? As it's all still there.

    I would strongly suggest you polish up your skills for MSE Forum searches before you venture into the more complex worlds of Sparen und Weltsparen ;)

    Well what can one say being challenged with such amazing superiority, guess us lesser mortals will just have to live with our obvious flaws then.

    yeah thanks...anyway think I know now why I could not get results. Looks like the browser was the problem, I logged in with another browser -Chrome- and search was fine. Anyway like I said prob solved with reading German site.
