I've got Charter Savings Bank Easy Access account issue 8, paying 1.31% (opened Nov 2017, no longer available for new accounts), so I won't be rushing to open this. Not impressed with Post Office Savings customer service.0

Seems a bit sensationalist to have a breaking news story where one provider is paying 0.03% more than 4 other providers have been for a while.0

Hard to get excited about 2% let alone 1.33%!0

0.02% less than my Tesco account, and miserably more difficult to operate.0

I can hardly contain my indifference.
But enough of the sarcasm, it is a market leader (currently), paying a whole 20-30p more per year per £1000 than some of the others currently available out there!
It will be interesting to see whether this sparks some of the others into offering a bit more over the coming weeks.0 -
....all OK assuming you can actual get you money out when you want to.

and me, after reading about the trouble people have on here trying to get their money back out from a Post Office account, I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole.0
