Hi Folks,
I have some news for you. I am handing over this thread to Bridlington1.
This is mainly because my priorities in life have changed with the recent arrival of a baby daughter. Although I have enjoyed creating this thread over 17 years ago and keeping it up to date since then, I would rather spend more time with my family right now and I imagine you can all understand this. The other reason is that I think Bridlington1 will do an amazing job of taking care of this thread!!!
We have agreed that tomorrow Bridlington1 will create a new thread based on the first page of this thread and then I will ask the moderators to close down this thread. I would entirely support Bridlington1 making any changes they wish and in particular changing the interest rate thresholds used for inclusion of accounts on this thread.
If you are a forum moderator and reading this message, then I would be grateful if you could post a message here or send me a private message as that will make things easier for me tomorrow when I need to find a moderator to close down this thread.
I would completely agree with the post by dcs34 on page 1675 suggesting adding the new Coventry BS Loyalty Seasonal Saver 6% (variable) account and also the post by Bridlington1 on page 1678 suggesting the addition of multiple other accounts (caused by the change in interest rate threshold that I suggested). I do not think I will have time to update the thread tonight or tomorrow so I will have to leave it to Bridlington1 but I think that is helpful in case Bridlington1 feels like changing the interest rate thresholds as that will affect the suggestions posted on page 1678.I will do another post tomorrow but let me take this opportunity to thank everybody who has participated in this thread and made it so successful over the years and thank Bridlington1 for taking over the thread!

@Special_Saver2
I'm just a novice on this forum, but I would like to thank you for bringing to my attention all these Regular Savers which are available online.
I've now opened a few and have started to save within my means. I'll never reach the heights of some on here, but l appreciate how helpful your thread was to me.
I'm standing on the shoulder of giants.
Good health to you and your family.
Ta, very much13 -

There's only one bed and there's only one prayer;
I listen all night for your step on the stair.7 -

I'd also like to pass my congratulations on the new arrival and tender my thanks for your excellent contribution over the years.
Bridlington1 does an incredible job as a contributor, an absolute backbone of the Savings & Investments section. He will do a splendid job of holding the reins, so don't lose any sleep on that subject - you'll be losing enough for other reasons!
Best wishes to you, your OH and the daughter for now, 2025 and the years to come.
