    Shame the rates are crap.
    If you think the rates are crap, where can you get much better fixed ISA rates?
    Term            Zopa         Best other
    1 year          4.3          4.32
    2 yrs           4.35         4.4
    3 yrs           4.4          4.41
    4 yrs           4.25         4.41
    5 yrs           4.25         4.2
    Zopa ISA rates looking quite competitive to me - provided you benefit from having an ISA. If you don't, you get better rates in non-ISA accounts.

    I couldn't get the Zopa rates even if I wanted them as they don't show in the app for me

    You are cool dudes if you held back your cash ISA for this currently tax year.






    Yeah, mine went to Santander for 4.25% fixed plus £50 voucher.

    I'm ok with that.

    You need to compare apples with apples. There may be much better savings rates available, but they are not ISA rates

    Not everybody has £20k lying about at the start of a tax year.
