@skinny Mossack Fonseca have some cracking deals
expect @hugo7 was referring to the credit checks that a bank will do when you open a new account. Too many checks can look bad when you're applying for a mortgage.
I'd think that if you're close to arranging a mortgage then unless the interest is significant then it might be worth just sticking with what you have until the house purchase is sorted.
going from 1.5% to 3% on 20k for example would be £300 a year difference. Nice, but at £25 a month it might not be worth the bother if you're mid purchase. Especially when you then get questions from the bank asking why you've transferred money recently, and can they have the paper trail for the last x years etc.

Money is money, doesn't matter where it is saved, no?
