    My gatehouse RS shows profit, states it’s still a RS (not EA) but has a rate of 5% and I can’t withdraw my money and that’s logging in online not the app…. 🤷🏼😂

    EDIT - I have the option to withdraw in the app.

    Gatehouse have added the interest/profit due to those who opened their RS accounts on 29/11/23.

    Not 100% sure what rate is applicable to the easy access accounts. I would be pleasantly surprised if it is 5% as the account suggests in online banking/their app..
    I didn't expect this, I thought they will either morph the account into EA at 4.51% (4.6%AER) or transfer the money into my existing EA.  5% EPR is 5.12% AER, but it is still showing as Regular Saver.  If it shows as EA at this rate tomorrow I won't be withdrawing.
