Trading 212 cash ISA (5.32% variable for 3 months, then 4.5%)

I've just applied for a 5.6% via the MSE link and the landing page showed 5.6%.
My rate when I now log on to the account I created only shows as 4.5%
Maybe this is because I have not deposited any money but I won't do this until the 6th of April.
Has anyone else seen the promo rate before depositing funds?
I don't want to transfer 20k and then be stuck on 4.5%.16 Panel (250W JASolar) 4kWp, facing 170 degrees, 40 degree slope, Solis Inverter.

BEWARE !!!
I opened the cash Isa account back in December 2024 when MSE was offering a 12month fixed bonus . I opened it via the MSE 'link' and followed all the instructions yet they insist that NO PROMO code is not on my account and wasn't available when I applied for the account. This is weird as I actually found and only heard of Trading 212 on MSE website. I have just discovered I have only been getting their underlying interest rate which goes from 4.5% to 4.35 on 1st May
I'm really annoyed so will be closing the account when my next interest is paid on 3rd May !!0 -
I've had exactly the same problem. Trading insisting that no promo was being offered when I opened it and therefore I have to accept the base rate reductions now sitting at 4.35 even though I want via the MSE link. Martin, I hope you get to read these discussions. You don't expect this kind of underhand treatment from investment companies/banks. I shall be moving my money this month too.0
