Re no change/reduction in interest rates - all I seem to be waiting for now are YBS and Gatehouse.

The following are yet to declare according to my records:

Beverley

Cumberland

Dudley

ESBS

Gatehouse

Hanley Economic

Mansfield

Market Harborough

Monmouthshire

Nationwide

Nottingham

Penrith

Suffolk

YBS

Zopa

Note not all of these have variable regular savers that pay a competitive enough interest rate for me to bother mentioning.

A full list of the cuts I have noted are on the post below (this link appears on P1 of the Archived thread for ease of reference):

Makes it sound like election night

And it's a very exciting election night, most of those yet to declare are key marginals, toss ups between the sensible party and the silly party. Oh, and Mary Whitehouse has taken Umbridge shortly after it was announced the previous winner has held onto Bristol.

Couldn't resist throwing in Monty Python into the mix.

Just closed my Nationwide Regular Saver on internet banking, so easy to do, £2400 + £81.38 interest ☺️.

Best of all it's instantly closed

[Nationwide Regular Saver]

Is that with the intention of renewing/refreshing it?

Shame we have to wait overnight to open another one.

Seriously thinking about raiding my Nat West/RBS Regulars to fund our Monmouthshire 7% regulars. It has the added benefit of reducing my interest income for this tax year.

Saffron Building Society App

Apologies if this has already been covered. I haven't been able to get into the Saffron app on my Android phone recently and have instead been greeted with this:   Oops ... We are unable to connect at the moment, please try again and if your problem persists, please contact us.

Today's update made no difference, so I called and was advised by the agent they have been aware of the issue for the last few days. Apparently, it is affecting all Android models. Their maintenance team is working on it and hope to resolve the matter soon. The website is working fine, for me anyway.

Odd, I just managed to login via the Android app which was updated today to v3.0.701089

Just closed my Skipton by app, £2000 + £43.99 interest, hopefully get that by end of day.

Had to get it transferred to my Skipton Easy Access then request it to be sent to a nominated account but job done 👍

Monmouth 7% Regular saver.

I’m sure this was discussed earlier but can’t now find the posts so, am I correct in thinking you can open both the online ‘£1000’ version and the branch ‘£500’ version.

I don’t want to travel a long way to be told I can’t have both.

Thanks for any help.
