    That said, 1.75% doesn't appeal to me now.

    Coventry RS is going up to 1.65% on 1/6 and I am going to recommence my monthly subscriptions.
    What makes 1.65% more appealing than 1.75%?

    Yes, it is irrational.

    VM HBC is intended for users of the VM HBC app. I have downloaded it and looked at it but I do not use it. 

    I opened the first one but started feeling cheap at exploiting what I saw as a loophole. I let it run its course but decided not to open any more.

    Virgin have released their latest Homebuying Coach Regular Saver, issue 11, paying 1.75% for 14 months.

    Unlimited penalty free withdrawals means its practically an easy access account and hypothetically if someone was to open them every 2 months they could be holding in excess of £12,000 across the accounts at all times earning the 1.75% making it far better than any easy access account.

    As happens every time, I can't find the means to apply without a link being supplied on here!

    I bookmarked the link (as given now) ages ago, and it updates each time so no need to search, it does seem 'hidden' without the link.

    I’ve got 3 regular savers all a 3.5% 2 First Direct and 1 Skipton that ends in August.
    Hope the do another.
    Good thing is if the interest rates go up significantly I can ditch the R Saver and stick in a fixed account.
