2 year Fixed Rates

I have been looking at the rates and note that Zopa is not quoted as a best buy when its 2 year rate is 1.56%. Any ideas why!

    It's normally only the top 3 or so that get listed - the top two rates are currently higher than that and ISBank (via Raisin) is presumably listed 3rd due to the cashback aspect which could prove more beneficial for some.

    Of the four accounts listed at https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/savings/savings-accounts-best-interest/#2yrfixtable, three have better rates than Zopa and the one that doesn't has a £50 bonus that may give a higher overall return.

    MSE only ever lists a small subset of the market-leading products but if you're looking for more comprehensive listings, including all the worse rates, then sites like MoneyFacts (when operational) or ThisIsMoney have more than MSE chooses to show.
