Enticed by the higher interest rates but...

Enticed by the higher interest rates that this account had to offer at the time. My wife got an account without any troubles. However, my experience wasn't quite the same. I'm unable to proceed with my application because of an issue with the app! I will try again another time and hopefully get further. Reviewed on: 2nd January 2024

Unbeatable interest rate

Great interest rate, of course I wish monthly max deposit was higher but it's worth opening account for just that, not to mention the current account switching bonus. Service seems excellent Reviewed on: 31st May 2023

High paying but not flexible

I love the high interest rate (7%) on this savings account. The max monthly amount is decent (£300). However, not being able to change the monthly payment date is inconvenient Reviewed on: 10th April 2023

What a great rate!

Fantastic rate for those who have a regular amount to save and can put away for 12 months. I do one each year Reviewed on: 10th April 2023
