2018? With only 2 rate rises predicted before 2020 you could be right

Will it be automatic or new accounts only? Do you mean the Club Lloyds current account or the Club Lloyds Monthly Saver?

How will I know if the interest rate of my account is affected?

If you have a savings account which:

• tracks the Bank Rate, your rate will change on 1 December 2017.
• has a fixed rate of interest, your account will not be affected by this change.
• has a variable rate of interest, see how your interest rate will change.

In addition, new Monthly Saver and Club Monthly Saver accounts opened from 1st December onwards will receive a 0.5% increase to the current available rate.

Can anyone provide the link that shows Lloyd's are increasing their Club Monthly Saver from 2.5% back to 3.0% on 01/12/2017. I can see other savings accounts are rising, however not the Club monthly saver.

You may be right but it's a nonsense anyway. The banks set their consumer rates based on their own expectations and requirements.

A week before the 0.25% rise, VM offered 1.81% on a two year cash ISA and 2.50% on a five year cash ISA. They are now down to 1.55% and 2.00%.

If you mean for new accounts from 1st December it's that quote. For existing accounts the rates are fixed so will not change

I'm just wondering where you've copied that quote from? I can see it on both BOS and Halifax sites for their Monthly/Regular savers.

It was in the that quote link but here it is in full

You need to check your calendar.
14.12.17 is a Thursday.

I think the suggestion is that it'll be another year before a minor rate rise, rather than whether the exact date is correct fro the day if the week.

Hi guys, didn't see it posted so thought I'd share.

Bank of Scotland and Halifax regular savers going from 2.0% to 2.5% on December 1st. Club Lloyds going back to 3% where it was in October.

About to do a forward roll until I spotted it's new accounts from 1/12/2017

In addition, new Monthly Saver and Club Monthly Saver accounts opened from 1st December onwards will receive a 0.5% increase to the current available rate.
