Gatehouse interest

I hope this question hasn't already been asked- I can't work out how to search within the thread anymore! My Gatehouse RS is just maturing and it had 7% interest/profit, but when I logged on today (maturity day) to double check if I'd put instructions for the maturity funds, it says 5% prfit on the screen. Does anyone know if this is for if the funds remain there, or have they reduced the interest (profit) during the term, without me being aware..?

I think you will find your RS has matured and now you have an easy access account paying 5% which in my books is well worth keeping and you can add to it.

This is a definitely more of a problem when a previously fantastic thread is bursting at the seams with posts which are hugely off tangent....

(Of which my post is too).

It being hard to search the thread means that questions get asked about things which are already covered earlier in the thread which even if they are on tangent contributes to the bursting at the seams

Well, the account name still states Regular saver and their easy access account only offers 4.75%. Also, their last message about maturity approaching said that they would email me when the funds were transferred into an instant access account, so I guess I'll have to wait and see...

The RS allowed no withdrawals. Try withdrawing £5, just having the facility to withdraw means it's an Easy Access.

You could just look at the T&Cs of this new account.........
