Harpenden BS Online Single Access (Issue 2) £100 min 4.21%

Do Harpenden have any history of decent regular saver accounts? Just wondering about getting set up with a login by opening this. 

This is the easy access thread. If you want to discuss regular savers...



* ducks and runs for cover ***

Ha ha. This is actually about both so I'd have to start a new thread with both types in the title!!!

Blimey, there’s that many new posts on here I thought a cracking new EA account had been launched. 

If only there was a way to create a new dedicated thread :-)

Big thank you to Leeds Building Society for taking the time to email to say they have a new account paying more than my current one

https://www.leedsbuildingsociety.co.uk/savings/online-savings-accounts/online-access-saver/

at 4.14% it doesn’t make @soulsaver top ten but good to see rates going up and with no restrictions on access to funds it appeals to me more than a single or double access account would

Yes I thought that was good of them.  I took them up on it and got a message this morning saying they had transferred my account to an ISA (paying 4.12%).  I nearly had a heart attack (my ISA is full already) until I noticed the follow up email saying sorry that ISA message was a mistake the transfer has actually gone to the Saver at 4.14%.  Phew

Cahoot…..I already have 2 joint and 1 sole Sunny Day Savers. I have 2 other accounts that I’ve not upgraded yet. Would that be taking the Michael?

Just try upgrading, they will upgrade, someone here has at least 14 Sunny Day Savers. 

Up grade one at a time.

absolutely not - Cahoot put the upgrade option in place for their customers to upgrade their lower interest rate paying accounts into higher rate paying account... i've upgraded earlier issues SDS, simple savers and fixed-rate bonds to SDS - so far I have seven.

Don't worry about Michael, just click on upgrade button, select Sunny Day Saver and you will see what accounts (if any) you are allowed upgrade.  Last time I did it, the system allowed me to upgrade issue 10, but not 11 and 13. All my previous upgrades went well, it was the first time I wasn't able to do it.
