With UK interest rates increased from 0.5% to 0.75%, the NS&I have decided to go..
...in the opposite direction, by cutting the cash ISA from 1% to 0.75%!
Not reading the tabloids, I refuse to be 'outraged', so a loud 'Tut!' will have to suffice.

Re: NS&I Cash ISA reacts to increase in UK interest rate.
Doesn't the proposed rate change predate the MPC decision?
Haven't got my paperwork to hand but IIRC the notification of reduction came through a while back.
Perhaps they'll cancel it following the rise....

Yes, I think they announced the cut back in July.
Interestingly, perhaps, HMRC yesterday announced they have increased the rates of interest for late payment from 3.00% to 3.25%, with effect from 21 August 2018.
Maybe https://www.nsandi.com/our-products will provide an update shortly. I'm keeping an eye out on this page https://www.nsandi.com/interest-rates.

Last time the base rate went up they immediately increased the Premium Bond prize fund by the full 0.25%. They don't seem to be doing the same this time.
