[Mr Skrunts]

Opened an account with the after thier over advertised TV campain for the 1-2-3 account.

Started off with a £2 monthly account charge

Upped that to a £5 monthly charge 

Now the cheeky sods have halfed thier interest from 3% (savings over £3K) to 1.5% for savings above 2% 


They changed now it looks like time for me to change

Interest was always going to plummet when we voted to leave the EU.  Anyone who thought otherwise was as misinformed as those who think we can still have all the good parts of the EU without the immigration following brexit.

Interest rates excluding Santander,have been shite a lot longer than the Brexit vote...iirc I've been bent over by Natwest for quite a few years regardless of my customer loyalty, and so myself and SWMBO have just dumped Lloyds and NW for Santander because 1.5% is better than .5%. BTW, the bankers bonuses probably won't be affected by Brexit in my estimation   greedy ba****ds!

But they are all going to have to drop over the coming months. And that is squarely at the door of the brexit vote.

The idea of a slow increase in rates (which is what most banks had made their products around) is now well and truly up the Gary Glitter.

Not sure why all this is the bankers' fault? But they will probably have a lean year, then a stonkingly good one for and good bankers, as their next set of targets will mean anyone of them able to make any profit with our pensions and ISAs will see them hitting targets.

They lied to us?? Our politicians? That can't be legal? Or even allowed without being slipped a surreptitious brown envelope stuffed with used fivers?


Wait, the haze of naivety is clearing, and ghastly reality is taking shape: it seems we're all oppsed!
