As above, I will be closing my TSB accounts and just switched my Santander and need a new home for savings that I don't want to put in investments. The only one I can see would be the easy access at Yorks BS at 1%.

I’m in the process of switching a bank account to HSBC Advance for their linked savings account. I figure the £125 invective to switch and access 2.75% regular saver (1 year) will be more than I’ll get having the savings elsewhere. Plus it’s a bit of certainty in an ever changing financial situation with all that’s going on Covid related.0

I would expect ALL current accounts, that pay interest to take the same route as Santander & TSB over the next month or so. Then watch the savings accounts take the same route.
I think it's all about switching and the bribes that will make money now. Not any savings interest rates.Life in the slow lane2 -

Premium bonds for me, I dont want fixed rate savings as the bulk of my savings will be needed next spring. Any other savings accounts are likely to drop to effectively 0 and I dont want the hassle of trying to chase an extra <1%3

I'm holding tight for now. As previous posters have said, bit fed up of changing accounts atm. Will see what's about in November 🤞Just my opinion, no offence 🐈1

Savings portfolio is a bit complex. At the moment we have a 95 day notice account and an NS&I Income Bond. Until end August the Notice account into which monthly regular payments are being made, had been paying 1.65%, but this is now 1.25% and due to drop further. Intention is to move a chunk of the notice savings into a fixed rate bond, open two regular savings accounts, and move the NS&I funds to whatever seems best for easy access in November.0
