The New Top Easy Access Savings Discussion Area

EthicsGradient

ii customers were able to take part in the auction of the new gilt (T36N), and since AJ Bell put up an explanatory page (which isn't there any more), I guess their cutstomers could too. It wouldn't surprise me if Hargreaves Lansdown also offered it, since I think they do some new gilt issues too - large platforms do this now.

IPO 4.875% Treasury Gilt 2036 - The Lemon Fool

Note that you don't get the yield guaranteed - it could have been below 4.875%, as well as above. It would have depended on demand.

That never dawned on me. Thank you so much. Way easier than what was never going to happen. 😂 Glad that I mentioned that, or would have been none the wiser.

Of course they are not equal, what they do have is the same AER.

Used to be possible, not any more. Those who managed to get two before Santander enforced their T&Cs for new applications are lucky

Thank you. Looks like @p1ston will be withdrawing his offer then.
On serious side, thank you. Don't really want another current account without any benefits.

Oh, you could have a joint Edge account as a second one, just not two sole accounts. So as long as @p1ston hasn't already got a joint with his preferred wife, it could still be game on 🤣

🤣🤣🤣 Love it! I swear I haven't laughed so much on the forum for a good while. I'll be getting us all into trouble, and it's @p1ston 's fault. It really is good to have a laugh in amongst all the seriousness business, so hope it's all taken as a bit of light relief, and no one really minds.
