Do we infer that any accounts not listed (it looks a pretty comprehensive list) are unchanged? I've got an EA saver account at 4.15%

In the case of most building societies I'd say so but I seem to recall in previous rate cuts they've missed off the Home Deposit Saver despite it also dropping so I'd be weary of making the assumption it shall remain unchanged in this case.

Has there been notification of the Ulster Bank Loyalty Saver rate reduction prior to today's email?

I posted about it here on the 10th May (last Saturday) - both Ulster & NatWest updated their websites around that time with the rate changes to their accounts.

West Brom 4 access saver (issue 2): The interest rate where 5 or more withdrawals are made is reducing from 2.15% AER to 1.9% AER from 16th June 2025. That suggests to me that the rate where less than 5 withdrawals have been made will remain at 4.65% AER after 16th June 2025 as no mention is made of that. Given that the rate went up to 4.65% AER after the interest rate cut it seemed likely in any case that the rate wouldn't immediately decrease.

Better to have it reported twice than not at all...
