Usually I have 20 payments to make at the start of the month into regular savers. With the new Chase rate that's left me with about 8 that are still worth paying into!

Much the same here, though I am still left with 20. I have closed all the sub 1.5% ones which can be closed and stopped/reduced the monthly SO into some others. I'll also only consider new ones if they pay more than 1.5%. At least that's whilst the 1.5% lasts, and whilst I have headroom in Chase.

I decided to keep them open, in particular because for the smaller / more regional providers there is a chance they may introduce a new product with a better rate, that requires one to be in existing customer.

I have easy access savings accounts with them for that purpose, with just a minimal amount of money in each of them

How irritating. Today Yorkshire BS has increased many of its variable interest rates by around 0.25%, for example the Christmas e-saver (no longer available) is up from 1.10% to 1.35%. But their current RS product, the 'Make Me a Saver', remains on 1.00%.

Vote with your feet if you consider it unacceptable. You can withdraw or close the account without loss of interest. I will keep mine going, with £50/mth, as I like a bit of a lottery.

I have looked on the YBS website but cannot see the increased rates there yet. I know they said they were increasing. I have an easy access ISA v10, currently up to 0.82%

I look on my individual account after I log in and the current interest rate is posted.

It still shows the old rate. I am assuming that the rate is one of those that is increasing!

You click on the i at top when you open account details to find rate 
They seem to have increased all their rates except the Make me a e-saver
