Just twigged to empty my round ups pot (only £50 mind) but the interest rate in the saver is higher than the round up

That 5p over the course of a year will make all the difference

My balance is more than £5.

£50*(5.1%-5.0%)=£0.05

The bonus is 1%, not 0.1%

See Above. We are talking about the Round up account, which has the interest rate of 5%

Just "upcycled" my Saver - closed my 4th November one, and opened a 16th January one.    I was going to leave it until closer to November in case a longer extension came along.

Yep, same.
Was also a bit apprehensive closing the account as it's currently my main/highest easy access saver, but it worked fine.
Less than 2 days to get sorted if you are in a similar position....

were you able to do that all on the app or did you have to do via chat ?

Hi, Chase telling me I cant 'upgrade' my existing boosted account from the November to the Jan timeline as I have an existing boosted account.....not quite the impression I got from the article, but I may have misinterpreted it

Did it all on the app.  Took a couple of minutes.  Had to close original saver, balance plus interest moved to current account, new saver opened, balance plus interest moved back.  New account number noted (same sort code).
