How lovely it is to drive home from carving club in day light. We've both been invigilating today and when we'd finished we called into the bank and moved my isa into an 18 month fixed rate. We've gone from earning practically nothing to earning 4.2% or thereabouts. Fixing for the 18 months gives us over £1200 in interest at the end of the fixed period. Compared with virtually nothing as it was. We'll worth checking you are getting the best rate for your savings folks.
Still light & probably warmer than here as I type this. Only 3deg! You still have a local bank......we do, but many are closing at an alarming rate which is scary for this old ex bank employee!!!!!! The world has changed so much this century. Take care & hugs.
ReplyDeleteWe refuse to bank online. So many banks have closed and jobs lost because people don't use them
DeleteI definitely do not bank on-line either. Know too well the implications & from being made redundant as it all came in. Long story.
DeleteIt definitely is - good for you! xx
ReplyDeleteBetter in my bank account than not.
DeleteHi Cherie, I have three CD's here at a major band for the same reason. The interest is wonderful to see. It's been a long time since we could make interest on our money in a bank or credit union. I check the price of the bank's stock, as well. We have had seen banks in the area I grew up in collapse recently. Ugh!
