They have one of the highest 1yr Fixed Rate accounts now the others are dropping off slightly, not heard much talk about this bank though?  Any experiences with them?

Was just going to ask the same question!

Signed up to the one year yesterday, waiting for a welcome letter with the user id so I can login but they have given account info so money can be transferred now if desired. 14 days to fund so plenty of time once the PB's I've cashed in get paid to me on the 15th Nov.

Will report back once i get the welcome letter......

Just for info - their one-year fixed rate saver is no longer available...

"This Account 'Fixed 1 Year Saver Account' Is Now Fully Funded And Closed To New Applications."

Well there goes that then!   I missed the boat on all the higher rates, was waiting for more movement upwards and then it all started moving downwards! Teaches me!

Yes I had a few fixed rate bonds with them a couple of years ago.  No problems whatsover.

RCI 4.85% for 2 year is still available, I've just opened it 11.00am  - 14 day funding window , see where things go for a week or so.

Same here. Also Ford 4.45 1 Yr and Close 5.05 5 yr. Will see how things go during funding windows to determine proportion in each.
