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%

Ah, OK....

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).

Did mine 5 minutes ago. I was a bit hesitant but it worked as others have said. Usefully all the payees remained though SOs cancelled which made it easy to set them up again

Closed my November saver this morning but won't give me an option to open a new January 5.1 saver.
Transferred money out of Chase to get my balance below 50k but still not able to get a new offer.
