Ford Money Flexible Saver rate reduction

I received an email advising me that my Ford Money Flexible Saver rate is reducing from 0.75% to 0.50% on 8 February 2021.
My surplus cash is in Coventry and Skipton instant access accounts currently paying 1.20% but I am not expecting these rates to last for much longer.

had the same email today, have been keeping most of my instant cash with ford for some time so need to think about this one. Dont think i can do better than 0.5% at this time?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 -
You could open a Virgin money current account to get 2.02% AER (variable) on the first £1k, them the same 0.5% AER variable on the remainder in the accompanying savings account.trickydicky14 said:had the same email today, have been keeping most of my instant cash with ford for some time so need to think about this one.

Whether it is worth it is another question.1 -

I see that the latest update to the Ford Money app now allows you to make withdrawals. Up until now it has only allowed you to view your accounts.0
