Flippin eck.... Atom Instant Saver Reward dropping by a whopping 0.6% from 4.60% to 4.00%.

Bye bye Atom, it's been good.

Yeah, just seen this in the app (cos I saw a post on the No chat thread about this and checked in the app as I hadn't received notice about this yet).
This is really a big drop..not sure I want to stay at this rate..shame really 😖

Even 4.6% is too low.  Snoop pays 4.6% without complicated conditions. Atom’s 4.75% was competitive, I’ve used it for a short time, but now it is useless. I’ll keep the account though just in case it becomes useful at some point in future.

I'm holding onto Atom, albeit with nothing in it, in case they decide to do a Zopa and suddenly offer me a beta current account with cashback and regular saver to tempt me back. We can only live in hope I suppose.

It depends on what day of the month your interest is paid. If it’s between now and 22nd you may as well wait until that day if you’re happy with 4.6%.

What gets me is on the 30 July their rate was 4.75%AER
On the 31 July it went down to 4.60AER
Now 22 days later it drops again another 0.6% to 4.0%AER
that’s a total drop of 0.75%AER in 23 days.

It is rather a sharp drop I shall confess. For me it was never quite high enough to fund more than the minimum and is currently empty anyway so it's not so much of a great loss. If they do come up with something useful in the future, splendid, if not it just sits there unused indefinitely.

Snoop Easy Access Savings (Issue 1) paying 4.6% went NLA today - to be replaced by Issue 2 paying 4.30%... so possible that emails / app notifications will be sent shortly if existing accounts will be reduced in line.

@soulsaver - i'll mention you although I know it's not one for your top 10, it might be worth a post in the no-chat thread.

My interest with Atom gets paid today, so rather than move it all now to the Chase Boosted Saver (only other instant savings account I currently hold) should I wait until 22nd then withdraw the whole lot from Atom in order to get the current 4.60% rate?
