YBS rates going up

Just had email from YBS, most rates are going up by 0.30% from 5th Oct.
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.

Yes and YBS are normally pretty good in terms of increasing rates on long held existing accounts too!0

I think the 2.5% six access is going up but not the 5% regular saver.cricidmuslibale said:Yes and YBS are normally pretty good in terms of increasing rates on long held existing accounts too!I choose the rooms that I live in with care,

As the 5th was two days ago, I would expect the YBS to stay at the 2.50% it currently displays in the app tbf.

You are certainly right about the 5% regular saver not going up (yet; it’s variable so it may do so in the future if other interest rates continue to rise). 5% is still close to the top of all available regular savings rates so the YBS loyalty regular saver remains very competitive at the current rate at the moment.trickydicky14 said:

Interesting. Thank you.
Two of my accounts are on there.
No email yet for me 🤷♂️
Also shows I misread their earlier emails around tiered rates. Could have sworn they were higher for lower balances to aid the smaller saver.
I have so many accounts though, it could have been an email from a different provider 🤦♂️🤣
Edit
Nope. It was YBS.
"Our new tiers will enable us to pay different rates of interest on balances in each tier;- The first tier will be for balances up to and including £20,000; and
- The second tier will start at £20,000.01
Changes will take place from 20 November 2022"
