£600 a year poorer from 1st November 2016.
« on: 02 September 2016, 11:59:56 »

Does anyone have a Santander 123 account?

Mrs Opti and I have one each.

A letter from Santander dropped through the letterbox this morning informing us  the Interest rate will drop from 3% to just 1.5% in November. :-\

The overdraft charges will also treble. :-\ The £5 monthly charge will remain. :-\

Surely they can't keep calling it the 123 account from November.

Bit of a pain, that, but, on the other hand, my mortgage is a lifetime tracker. That said, it might even start to make sense to overpay that with some savings. :-\

It will be bad enough that we'll have to start investing in Omegas soon. ;D

The rates at the Wellesley had dropped from 3.75% to 3.00%. Now a further drop to a 'piss poor' 2.25% ( with risk involved) :-\

BG.....I believe you are confusing me with Mr Tunnie. Does he still own that 'shag pad' in Kensington and Chelsea? :)

I think its been mentioned on here before.  But "we" voted to leave the EU, after being told that it would severely impact our financial stability, so we can only blame "ourselves".

Santander, being a Spanish bank are probably entitled to get a bit 'nervous'... ::)

Now I'm no financial expert, but you should pay off you mortgage, with savings, then your mortage payments, become your savings account.

Think that's how it's meant to work :o

Not if the interest you receive on your savings is higher than the interest you pay on your mortgage. But I doubt that will happen in the next 50 years.

German banks are paying negative interest on current accounts.

i.e. you pay to have your money in them. Business Opening there Lord Opti.

Nowt to do with Brexit.

Now we had a power cut today. I balmed that on Brexit.

How's 4% sound on £4K+ balance . . . pay £1500 a month in and no account charges, few rules and limits though.

No interest paid over £5K balance  :-\
There's a monthly charge of £5 if you dont pay the monthly £1500 in  :)
Needs 2 direct debits active per month. ;)
