Skipton Building Society Regular Saver

Post by Sarah » Wed Sep 08 2021 10:00pm

Online Existing Member Regular Saver Issue 1

3.50% gross pa/AER fixed for 12 months (Annual interest)
This account might be right for you if:

* you're an existing Skipton member who joined on or before 16/08/21

* you want the security of a fixed rate that’s guaranteed for 12 months

* you’d like to save up to £250 per calendar month to build up a lump sum

* you don’t need to withdraw from the account but want to be able to close the account if you really need to.

a decent rate by Building Society standards.. but at least double available on stablecoins nowadays, and 6%+ on bitcoin suits me nicely.

correct pab. no point starting a discussion you got yourself into a corner on again though ;)

my broad point would be that cash isn't the place to be. but for those determined to do so, the best rate on cash is the way to go.

for the long-term 'baggers amongst us there's an argument that we should eek out the best rates from all of the building/friendly societies and mutual insurers, but a simple c£100 in the Skipton works for me.

consistently making incorrect statements would get boring, yet you're happy to resurrect :problem:

anyway, are you opening one of these accounts Sarah?
