NS&I mini cash ISA rate rise to 5.55%
ICICI will HAVE to rise to at least 5.25% as they guarantee to be .25% above BOE rate
The Coventry BS First, current/savings account, currently paying 5.35% AER, will increase to 5.60% because they guarantee their rate will be 0.60% AER above BOE base rate

The rise was totally expected !
The last one in August took the market by surprise so there were plenty of rumours that todays rise would be .5%
I think the next rise wil be in Feb |
