Because they hope that not "everyone" will transfer to the "new one".

Probably the majority of savers won't even notice it, as most banks/building societies hope.

Intructions for the Bodgit & Broke internet dance here, which I found handy last time:

Couldn't be arrissed - moved out of B&B instant stuff a while back, they seem to bring out a new account with improved rates/old account with dropped rates every few weeks (and if you don't do the "Bodgit shuffle" has to go out to your bank then back in).

Investec (and Saga if you're an old git) do "top 5" accounts where they pay the average of the top 5 payers (surprise!). Also the Coventry had (and maybe still have) decent instant accounts, again mainly for oldies.
