The New Top Easy Access Savings Discussion Area

It never occurred to me to look on Trustpilot or other places for reviews when choosing a financial product. Nearly all the accounts are ok, and most are much of a muchness. The main criteria for me is FSCS protection (which nearly all have), followed by interest rate and ease of managing (I am staying clear of account that can only be opened and managed in Branch - but these are now far and few between).
If you follow this forum, or ask questions, you see comments from real people, many with extensive experience of savings and other financial products.
As you say, this is really off topic, so if you want to discuss it further, perhaps start a separate thread about it.3 -

Thanks for all the replies. I prefer to do banking stuff on my desktop so that side of it doesn't bother me. It has never occurred to be that trustpilot might not be reliable, it's usually my go to when trying to suss out websites etc.

Maybe there's a comparison site for review providers ☺
Is there not a no-chat version of this thread? I've looked through several pages of threads but couldn't find one.

Hi,
how did you upgrade?
do you need to open another account?
0 -
No need to open a new account. There is an upgrade button and if you click that you will get three choices one of which is upgrade an existing account you hold. Click that and then click the account you want to upgrade.

top right on your accounts page, and follow the option to upgrade an existing account.
Upgrade is instant, account details stay the same, and you will get the accrued interest from the old rate a day or two later, as a credit into your upgraded account. Your new account duration is 12 months from upgrade.
