I have an easy access members bonus saver Issue 1 account with Skipton paying 5.5%. Can you renew this account after a year to keep the bonus if the account is still available.
I choose the rooms that I live in with care,
The windows are small and the walls almost bare,
There's only one bed and there's only one prayer;
I listen all night for your step on the stair.

Yes but can you open a new one at the end of the year to keep the bonus.FishInGlass said:My notes say 1.7% bonus for a year max amount £3000 at 5.5%I choose the rooms that I live in with care,

You can also ``refresh" the account before the end of the term if you wanted to. I closed mine just before the end of the last tax year and reopened it shortly after the start of the new one for tax purposes. My new account still shows 5.5%.

I opened an account on Saturday and funded it with £1 by debit card. However it is showing an interest rate of 3.80%.
Will this change when the £1 clears in a couple of days?0 -

There's no time limit. Once the account is closed you can open a new one straight away.cjjhbn said:After closing the members bonus saver is there a time limit. before you can open a new account0 -

Do I wait until the 31st when mine matures.
Agh, decisions decisions decisions.0 -
Didn't realise you could do that! I may do that, as I'm going to be well over my PSA this year due to the sudden increase in rates last autumn, but I'm trying to manipulate next year's savings to try to limit my exposure to paying tax on interestBridlington1 said:
