I research before my posts, and I never intend to share anything that is misleading, misinforming, or out of date, but don't rely on everything you read.

However, there are some better deals out there now, so thinking of moving again.,...may split half in easy access and half locked. Just need to work out what products now...
There are some really nice interest rates out there, but the Personal Tax Free Savings Allowance is so pitifully low at £1000 (unless I have that wrong) it feels like another kick in the teeth TBH.0 -

You need to follow the process outlined by "descrabled" here:-
https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/comment/79879297/#Comment_79879297
You renew the RS to an easy access saver account, withdraw the money, then close the EASA, .
You might have to log off and on again once or twice for things to update.
Phoning Lloyds will only draw their attention to the loophole. Please don't!7 -
