I just had this pop-up...



Need to open a new Saver Account - can't seem to apply to existing Easy Access.

    Poorly thought out and poorly implemented from everything I’ve seen so far.

    Not had mine pop up yet but if true will need to open new pots and close the old ones down.
  • I wasn't eligible or the offer had gone. I logged on within 10 seconds of receiving the notification.

    my app did that, but I restarted it and was able to open it

    I’ve raised a complaint with Chase. They had a fantastic opportunity here of raising their heads above the water in the Easy Access savings market. All they have done is make things annoying and divisive for their customers. 
  • Thanks for that tip, a restart did the trick.

    You are the first to say that you have to 'close the old ones down'
    I've just opened it and have my old one and see no indication that all others (up to 9?) need to be closed
    Can you provide any evidence of this?
  • Small print so not available to all. Their normal saver is now 1.15% below BoE base rate tracker, currently 5.25%, so 4.1%. This boosted saver, if you are eligible (see below) is 0.15% below BoE base rate tracker, hence 5.1%, until 4th Nov 2024 when it become the standard saver at 1.15% below BoE base rate

    Yes, I had to log in a second time to see this in the app.  I'll move over from the Santander Easy access Limited Edition at 5.2% when that drops back on 20th May.
