Small changes to RCI Bank fixed rate accounts, 1 down and 1 up. 2 year now 4.92% (was 5.05%), 3 year now 4.72% (was 4.70%). Other rates unchanged (1, 4 and 5 year).

5 and 7yr on raisin platform @4.75% will pay in the long run I'd suspect, if BOE rates are dropping this year and next.

Hi all,

Having used the mse best rates page for a lot of years I just wanted to please ask if anyone knows why they no longer show the highest rates available for one year fixed rate accounts for example.

Previously, even if mse didn't make any money from me clicking on a link for a best rate account you used to show that account.

Has that now changed?

I ask because when I look elsewhere  they have higher rates like 5.21% with Vanquis bank and your highest is the The Hodge bank for 5.16%, and it makes me think those higher rate paying accounts may not be legitimate.

Can anyone please confirm why mse are no longer showing all the best accounts?

Thanks in advance for any insight.

Appearing on a MSE page isn't any guarantee of legitimacy or being 100% up to date every day.

MSE don't update their savings account top rates tables as regularly as some other sites (and possibly not at the weekends) and I think the Vanquis accounts you mentioned have only been available for a day or two.

Savings account comparison sites like Moneyfacts tend to be a bit more up to date than MSE, so it's a good idea to check both sites.

I imagine it's because MSE covers a lot of things rather than a specialised site focusing on just savings accounts etc which is probably why several people on here will suggest you go to money facts etc.

MSE might not have the resources to update etc as often.

MSE might not include accounts for various reasons.

You can try to persuade them to include accounts via the broken link address, you are not guaranteed a reply though.
