It's always possible they'll introduce something for existing customers some time after the current boost expires in a little over a month now - as many might not wish to keep a significant balance without it (even the current boosted rate can be bettered) or bother with transferring in £1500 a month just for 1% cashback. The newer boost is only for 6 months by the way,2

Monument reducing rates
On 7th November 2024, the Bank of England reduced their base rate from 5.00% to 4.75%.We always aim to provide our clients with some of the best rates in the market. Following the base rate reduction, we have maintained the interest rates on our variable savings accounts for as long as possible, allowing you to benefit from higher rates for longer. However, as markets continue to adjust following the Bank of England’s rate reduction, we will be reducing the interest rate on your Easy Access Savings account. What's changing? - Your Easy Access Savings account interest rate will change from 4.81% to 4.55% AER (variable).
- This change will take effect on 10-12-2024. You will continue to benefit from your existing rate until then.
What happens next?
You do not need to take any action. The change will happen automatically, and your account terms remain the same. The table below summarises the change on your account ending : Current rates Gross % AER % 4.71 4.81 Rates from 10-12-2024 Gross % AER % 4.46 4.55 1 - Your Easy Access Savings account interest rate will change from 4.81% to 4.55% AER (variable).

I am not impressed by Monument reducing rates from the 10th December and them sending out comms on this to their customers after 5pm on the 10th of December. Rates reduced on their instant access, 7, 35, 45 and 60 day notice accounts (can transfer out if rates drop without notice).9

Just spent ages moved our savings from our joint Skipton Bonus saver to two Monument Bank accounts, only opened last week, got an email today the rate is going down from 4.81 to 4.55 , is it worth moving to Atom bank (current highest) or will that go down soon?0
