    Moneyfacts showing Yorkshire BS £50 Regular Saver @ 8%. Not currently showing on YBS.co.uk

    Previously indicated by @Bridlington1 although iirc the rate was unknown at the time.

    YBS £50 RS now showing as 6% on moneyfacts after disappearing this afternoon.

    £50/mth max
    3 withdrawal days per year
    Can skip months if you wish
    £600 max balance
    Interest rate variable if my sources were correct.
    I still can’t see it

    Did you adjust the investment amount to £1 instead of the usual £100 showed as default before launching the search? The RS is showing correctly in that case.
    Didn’t think of that - thank you, now showing 😀

    I will be giving this one a miss. Due to the low monthly limit of £50  it would only earn me around £4 more than just leaving the money in my easy access savings accounts

    Me too. I have Dudley, Monmouthshire and Darlington all opened recently, and Melton Issue 6 running for another year, so £1,450 of capacity at 6% variable (in addition to any of my soon to be maturing fixes that can be replaced.) At £50 per month you’d expect them to beat that rate.

    Disappointing... 6% is below my current minimum threshold, Monmouthshire have really shaken things up!

    This account is showing on the YBS website now, not that I'm rushing out to claim it. It's a bit of a joke when you put it up against the likes of Monmouth and to be fair a lot of other accounts available. 
    I choose the rooms that I live in with care,
    The windows are small and the walls almost bare,
    There's only one bed and there's only one prayer;
    I listen all night for your step on the stair.

    For 8% I would have grabbed it. For 6% and max £50 I really can’t be bothered.

    Especially when it was listed at 8% yesterday. I’d have taken 6% fixed or 7% variable, but 6% variable isn’t worth the hassle.
