    I need to move away from chip, it's going down to 3.77% in July. A bit of a pain but it is what it is.

    Agree. I’m moving my contents to both 
    1. Atom - Instant Saver Reward: 4.75% AER 4.65% Gross
    2. Snoop - Easy Access Saver: 4.60% AER / 4.50% Gross
    Plus Snoop pays daily on Mon/Tue/Wed/Thur/Fri. Sat&Sun paid Mon.

    I hadn't noticed those accounts before and I habe opened them now.

    There's also a £5 Amazon gift card available for new Snoop users if you know where to look.

    Snoop does seem to live up to it's name, I linked an otherwise unused current account as I don't want it going through my finances and giving me "advice" on various products.

    Make sure you are aware of the rate with Atom when you make a withdrawal.

    Indeed, if I need to withdraw I think I will withdraw nearly everything, deposit the funds I do not require to another account (e.g. Snoop) and deposit back to Atom the next (calendar/statement) month.

    Exactly how I play it. Just make sure you do any transfers In/Out of Snoop before 11AM otherwise it rolls on to the next day.

    I've managed to open the 5% & 4.5% bush kangaroo accounts. Nice to see Skippy offering some decent rates.

    For the  'bush kangaroo accounts', would you mind sharing the name of this bank so I can find out more about it, please?
