Savings Accounts Rates Drop

Savers should be wary about how much their savings accounts interest rates are dropping following Thursday's rate cut, after some rates have been cut much more than the 0.25% Bank Of England cut.

Saga dropped the interest rate on its one year fixed rate account by 0.85%, or 0.26% for the internet based account. At the same time the Nationwide has only passed on a cut of 0.17% or less to its savers.

If you shop arround some banks and building societies are bringing out new account offers that might be well worth your while.
