Savings account warning as 'more than 20' providers slash interest rates - full list

More than 20 savings account providers have slashed interest rates for customers since the Bank of England cut its Base Rate last Thursday. The accounts targeted include easy access, notice, Cash ISAs, Junior ISAs and children's savings accounts.

Not every provider passed on the Bank of England's 0.25% cut. Some reduced returns by less, while some cut rates by even more. One provider, Atom Bank, reduced the interest rate on its Instant Saver Reward account by as much as 0.58%. According to research by Moneyfactscompare, other brands withdrew and replaced their accounts with lower rates. Rachel Springall, finance expert at Moneyfactscompare.co.uk, said: "Savers will feel frustrated to see an abundance of providers cut rates since the Bank of England Base Rate cut. As more than a dozen brands cut by the end of last week, it's only got worse.

"Over 20 providers have now cut since last Thursday, showing how quickly cuts are passed on to hard-pressed savers. It is essential that consumers stay in tune with market movements and switch to ensure they are not getting a raw deal."

The savings expert highlighted that, over the past week, the Moneyfacts Average Savings Rate has dropped from 3.50% to 3.47%.

• Santander Rate for Life - 4.25% (down from 4.50%, marking a -0.25 cut to take effect on September 2, 2025).

Ms Springall continued: "The rate moves really depend on the funding appetite of the savings provider, with many of the top rates still on offer from challenger banks and building societies.

"The cuts prove that a variable rate savings account does not need to be linked to the Bank of England Base Rate to get hit, but this cut does give providers a green light to review rates."

With inflation predicted to rise to 4% in September, Ms Springall warned that many savers will see the value of their pots "erode".

She noted: "As it stands, less than 10% of variable rate savings accounts pay more than 4%. It's not much better including fixed deals, as overall less than a third of the standard savings market pays over 4%".

She urged: "Savers need to keep a close eye on the market for any vanishing accounts and ensure they abandon their loyalty if it is not being rewarded with a decent savings rate."
