Chase Bank 1.5% easy access account or not ??

smellywelly1234

Hi i have just opened a chase bank account for the savings account 1.5% easy access i wanted to put £60,000 in but i am worried that when you read the reviews people are having trouble getting their savings out and i would need this instantly for a house deposit, after reading the reviews I'm a little concerned about doing this.  What are your views on this thanks

Have you read through all the other threads that are about Chase?

A simple browse through the forum (no need to search) and you'll find plenty of threads which will more than answer your question/concern

It's an easy access account as it says, but be aware there is a £25K limit per day on withdrawals. I've had no problems withdrawing

I second that.

I’ve never had any issues. Regularly move large amounts in and out.

I concur.

They also use Faster Payments so the transfers are (mostly) instantaneous.

I certainly beats Al Rayan where you can be waiting hours for your money.

Last week I drew £35 k out in 3 withdrawals to my nominated account .They all went through in no more than 5 mins each over 2 days

There's no such thing as a nominated account in Chase. You can withdraw / send money to any UK account.

Similar here @SAC2334.

Large withdrawals (and deposits) work very well to the singular nominated account on my Chase C/A.

You do not need a nominated account for Chase. Or do you just mean a Payee / external account  that you have withdrawn to before?

I have six external accounts in my Payee List. I would not say any of them were a nominated account.
