Could you first thin down your list by telling us which of those are variable rates and which are fixed rates.

I've got no idea i'm afraid.

Leek B.S - Open Issue regular saver was increased to 2.25% including bonus on 1 December

Quote from their T&Cs:

"These rates apply from 2 December 2917.

* Gross rate of interest is the interest rate payable before any income tax is deducted (if you do pay tax)."

Is this to coincide with the UK finally clearing its current account deficit I wonder?

It'll say in your paperwork and on their websites.

Starting one of these is equivalent to starting two Virgins, if necessary withdrawing most of the balance after several months and in effect starting two more Virgins.

Depends on the interest rate on the next pair of Virgins.

Really :exclamati

Leek B.S Regular Saver has been going for years and currently carries on year after year, those who have been saving into it will have a significant amount attracting 2.25% and those starting one of these now will probably be able to carry on saving into it year after year unlike Virgin regular saver.

I was losing my fondness for 2% RSs when my Leek matured, especially as it had to be kept open for the bonus, in favour of the Virgins, and others of course, with higher and more solid interest rates.

I dont think Ive ever had someone come back to me so many times, normally someone gives up after 1 reply to me. :rotfl::rotfl:


There can be a lot said for 2% regular savers that carry on year after year, I have Leek Homebuyers regular saver not available for new applications, paid 1000 into it month after month year after year currently have 42000 paying 2% and Yes I also maximise higher paying accounts.
