    Can anyone explain why Cynergy bank is missing from the best easy access savings rate table? They are offering 1.85% p.a. (including 1st year bonus of 0.15%). They were on the MSE table but have recently disappeared.
    Also missing from the Savingschampoin web site.
    It's probably because they're only offering the account to existing customers now.

    Darlington bs regular savers increased by 0.3%. Special occasion saver now 2.5%.
    Good news.

    The green Saver is also up to 2.1% for those interested.

    Closed issue High Days Regular Saver a/c only up by 0.15% to 2.20%, so falling further behind their open issues which have better terms.
  • Earl Shilton BS to increase "most" accounts by 0.4% on 1 October, but will not specify which.

    Announcement  here

    I haven't emailed yet for the new RS rate.
  • Monmouthshire
    Today I received two letters, both delayed in the post.
    One was for the existing member regular saver (1.52%) maturity instructions. The other was an acceptance letter for the regular saver 6 (2.25%) that I applied for online.
    Their system of applying for accounts online and then having to receive mail that needs to be replied to by mail is just so old fashioned and I'm thinking of binning the lot.  I just can't be bothered with filling in forms and posting, especially when we are likely to see continuing industrial action at Royal Mail.
    c.f. the much better methods used by Principality.

    What are other savers doing in this situation?
  • I ditched Monmouthshire during my last review of my savings accounts, including Regular Savers.

    I may be from the "snail mail and passbooks" generation, however, I prefer the more modern banking approach tbh.

    Monmouthshire...

    ...What are other savers doing in this situation?
    If the interest rates are good enough, I put up with snail mail.

    If they can, I hope they dont do it here. This thread is meant to be about Regular Savings Accounts.  All the off topic stuff and chit chat makes the important posts harder to find. 
    Would you mind cutting some slack, please?  It was a first time poster who may not be familiar with the different threads.  Please don't put people off  :)
