Instant access savings accounts

Post by darich » Fri Nov 10, 2023 12:09 pm

I've had money in "Chip" for a while now.
Instant access with no limits on amounts or penalties on withdrawals. Interest rate is 4.84%
I have a £20 refer a friend code but for both of us to qualify for the £20 each the friend would need to deposit £5k and leave it for 6months. Seems such a pathetic incentive for a pretty large deposit and long period of time.

"Supposed to be" sounds about right. :lol:

I only put £100 in them in 2006 and cashed them in for £100 in 2021 but never won anything in 15 years - total waste of time! :(
I have the exact opposite experience.

Have the individual maximum which could we could have used to pay off the mortgage 3 years ago. But as we are only paying interest at 2.5% fixed for another 2 years we decided to leave it in the Premium Bonds. So far winnings have paid the monthly mortgage for the last 3 years and provided £3K profit.

Still hoping for the big one though.
