New underlying interest rate Previous underlying interest rate
2.25% AER / 2.22% gross* (variable) 1.75% AER / 1.74% gross* (variable)

That becomes 2.50% including the 0.25% bonus, which is just 'a rod for their backs' now. The change takes effect from today.

Very welcome for existing accounts. I'd seen it on hukd and assumed I would only be new regular savers.
