    Isn't KROO a tracker, in which case you're lucky to get an email at all. I don't think Chip send anything out.

    This one is the target, guys, though to be fair its Cash ISA is a tracker of base rate minus 0.15%.

    Email from Oaknorth @ 12:23 today:-

    They didn't waste any time.

    ====

    We're writing to inform you that we're reducing the interest rate on your savings account.

    Effective from 21 Aug 2025, the interest rate on your Easy Access Limited Edition Account number ending in *****XXX will decrease from 4.05% AER to 3.80% AER.

    ====

    Luckily I emptied the Oaknorth account months ago. That should have automatically closed the account but they still keep sending me emails.

    If you pay 20% savings tax, you would end up with about 3% net interest. With CPI now 3.6% many savers will be losing money in real terms.
