    Apologies if this has been mentioned, I'm only skim-reading this thread due to all the fluff:

    Scottish Building Society Effective 20 September

    Esaver Plus Issue 1 (NLA) from 5.00% to 4.61%
    Esaver Plus Issue 2 (NLA) from 4.81% to 4.61%

    Have Kent Reliance announced any forthcoming drops in their interest rates? I see issue 67 of their EA saver still shows 5.11% on their website and no indication that it is reducing anytime soon.

    I have the issue 67 and they haven't given notice of any reduction yet. I only opened this account just in case and have only kept £1 in it since, but I'm glad I opened it now. It was only available for about 2 weeks.

    I'm in the same boat but I don't know whether KR are one of the institutions that notify you of rate changes if you have less than £100 in it. If they are then neither of us would have had that notification. I can't see in their T&Cs that they specify the £100 minimum, they just state they will give 14 days notice so hopefully we are OK.

    From my past experience they tend to keep the rate the same, but make it NLA

    Leeds BS Limited Issue Online Access Account Issue 55 (NLA) 5.1%

    Has Leeds made any announcement about a reduction to the rate of this account, or indeed any other of their accounts? I haven't read anything yet.
