Yes. Pay in £1500 per month to avoid the fee. Two direct debits to get the interest.ZeroSum said:

Not great news but it's still 0.6% more than I get on my other bank accounts.

I wish they'd stop sending the magazines each month, or give you that option, and put that saving towards better interest rates.0

What magazines do you mean? If you've chosen a magazine subscription as your Club Lloyds benefit, then you can change to a different one after 12 months. You can choose digital movie rental, Gourmet Society membership, or six cinema tickets instead.Sun-Is-Fun said:I wish they'd stop sending the magazines each month, or give you that option, and put that saving towards better interest rates.0 -

I think it was the "and put that saving towards better interest rates" which was prompting Sun-Is-Fun's post. So movie rentals etc are no different in terms of being some kind of a cost. However earmarking such a saving into interest payments is highly unlikely.0 -
My maths is bad please advise,
Having three Bos vantage accounts with 5k in each would I now be better of moving the cash to my NS&I account paying 1.16% I think?
I choose the rooms that I live in with care,
The windows are small and the walls almost bare,
There's only one bed and there's only one prayer;
I listen all night for your step on the stair.0 -
Depends exactly what you mean by 'now'!trickydicky14 said:My maths is bad please advise,

If 'now' literally means today then no, you're still earning an effective 1.2%, which is obviously better than 1.16%.
If 'now' means October, after the rate changes, then yes, 1.16% beats the revised effective 0.78%.1 -
Thanks eskbanker,
I did not make it clear i was thinking October not now.I choose the rooms that I live in with care,
