Gatehouse Easy Access - Minimum Balance?

Does anyone happen to know what the minimum operating balance is for a Gatehouse Easy Access account? I've looked through all the bumf and can't find anything.

    Do you know what version you have, if it's the current version (I opened mine in Nov 23) that is 4.66%, then I cannot see any minimum operating balance in the T&Cs.

    I've had £1 in mine for quite some time.

    I opened it in October 2022 and it's currently showing as 4.76%. I've since found the Ts&Cs in a separate folder but still can't see any specific amount.

    As above, its £1. 
    I have two fixed ISAs and an Easy Access account with them - all very easy to use.
