Icesave - Easy Access Savings Account interest rate increased to 6.3% AER

  • Probably plenty still with them, including me. It was a breeze to setup with them, and there have been no problems running the account.

    As long as they offer a rate which is consistent and not a mile off this week's (often temporary) best rate, I'm quite happy. :rolleyes:

    Ditto my thoughts however at the time I had a choice of 6.05% or 6.50%, a big enough gap for me to jump ship and I've had the same high quality service at Kaupthing Edge too. No problems whatsoever.

    With Kaupthing Edge dropping the minimum deposit from £1k to £100, 6.5% AER and a rate guarantee of at least 0.30% (gross) higher than the BoE rate until 1st February 2012, who's still with IceSave?!

    I am probably one of the first ICESAVE customers and was my main easy access savings account but has since jumped ship to their Icelandic counterpart Kaupthing Edge but has just left £260 in it. It looks like that it won't be long that Icesave will decrease their maintaining balance to £1 and match kaupthing edge 6.5% or higher who knows.;)
