    Oh wow, so I can just transfer £1500 out of Edge Up, to another account, then back in and that does it? 
    Crazy! But thanks!

    And that's something to think about, for sure... I need to check best savings account as that may work out even better. 
    Thank you!

    Yorkshire BS are just about to launch a competing account. They're calling it the Eh Up account.  :)

    Kroo's current account earns 4.1% interest on balances. Opening a new Edge Up account and leaving your 123 Lite account as it is is another option.

    Think carefully about giving up 123 Lite as there'll be no backies on that - once you're out you're out.
