    1,25% fixed rat for one year is available from Aldermore . Also legit and good service.

    Opened a 3 yr 1.40% fixed rate at Aldermore this morning. I have 14 days to fund it.

    If you have any existing account directly with Paragon they are still offering the 1.30 one Year Fixed Rate online. I have opened one just now.
    Thanks so much for that - I already had an ISA with them so I was able to log in and open a 1 Year Fixed @ 1.30%, despite it no longer being available to new customers.

    Thanks, I knew I had that £2 in a savings account with them for some reason :)
    Just opening one with 28 days to fund it.
    Sad days when I'm chasing down a 1.3%
    Have a Coventry RS maturing soon so timing is good.

    This is not investment advice.
    Your money may go "down and up and down and up and down and up and down ... down and up and down and up and down and up and down ... I got all tricked up and came up to this thing, lookin' so fire hot, a twenty out of ten..."
  • I have seen the paragon account with 1. 3 interest rate and am confused  as most searches and information pages regarding savings talk about 0. 15 % being the average interest ( including here on the money saving expert pages) so my question is why is so much better with them ..??? It makes me wary 😒. 
  • I was going to ask about Paragon and I'm glad someone else did, it does seem to have positive reviews on here compared to elsewhere. I think I will consider it further.

    Try as I may, I cannot see 1.3% on any of their accounts. Where did your information come from?
  • I can’t see it either now god knows where I saw it . 
    Ah well Back to the drawing board trying to find a good rate

    They used to have one last September. Which is, of course, now an eternity ago.
