Skipton Bonus Saver

I opened a Skipton Bonus saver @4.5% (including the bonus rate of 1.7%).  I already hold the Member Bonus Saver but this didn't prevent me from opening the Bonus Saver and nothing I could see in their t & c saying I couldn't.
I funded it by DC today but it is only showing an interest rate of 2.8% ie without the bonus.  Does anyone know why this is please?
Thanks

    It will increase when the card payment clears.

    It's because you paid in by debit card. Will switch to showing the full rate in the next 2-3 days. That's what happened to me. It's covered in this post also.
