Max a/c balance is £25K. The 3.00+1.55% bonus are not dependent on taking out a mortgage, only the additional 1.20% mortgage bonus is.

HomeSaver Bonus (conditional): 1.20% gross (fixed), earned daily from the date of your first deposit and paid once after 365 days, payable only if you complete a qualifying mortgage through Tembo Money Limited. Accrual stops after day 365. The bonus is forfeited if you make more than three withdrawals in any rolling 365-day period or if your balance falls below £1,000 from month 12 until you claim.

Ditto, my test £1 also showing 4.2% instead of the published 4.05%.

N.B. this YBS Four Access eSaver becomes an easy access account after a year.

Can anyone remember the deal with Cahoot? Son opened an account yesterday as a new customer and using Topcashback too. Application seemed fine but he’s not received an email or anything…….TCB tracking ok so that part worked.

On Tembo's HomeSaver information sheet from their site, below, I can't see the more than 3 withdrawals or the balance falling below £1,000 conditions. Am I being blind? (apologies if so!)

As much as I remember (I opened my first Cahoot 2 years ago) it took a couple of days for the account to be opened and the first e-mail I received was "Your cahoot account is now open". After that every new account opening was instant.

Earn Market-Leading 5.75% AER With Tembo HomeSaver

Scroll down to near the bottom, to the last white bit before the last dark place, below where it says 'See All Guides'.

There's mistakes included (Max £20k should be 25k, FSCS £85k should be 120k)

Also they are an aggregator - DYOR
