I have an easy-access cash Isa and I want to open and pay into another one which is flexible. Can I just pay money into two cash Isas now that the rules have changed? What do I need to know?

NS&I planned to announce the changes last week with the usual fanfare, but the election announcement scuppered that plan. As a Government agency, it cannot be seen to do anything that might influence your vote.

Great news for 3.85 million Nationwide customers. They will see a £100 payout land in their current accounts between June 13 and 28.

To land the £100 Fairer Share this year, you need to have a current account open on March 31 this year.

With the rise in savings interest rates recently I now believe I owe the tax man a four figure sum for the last tax year. I've read conflicting reports on whether I should tell them or that they will tell me. I have an uneasy feeling that if I tell them I may be opening up a worrying can of worms. What do I need to do?

Nationwide Building Society has launched an 18 month fixed-rate account paying 5.5%. The new 'Member Exclusive Bond' is only available to Nationwide members. How does it compare to other savings accounts?

The clock is ticking for savings providers. They now have just a few weeks left to get their act together and start offering loyal customers a good deal.

Last June, 3.4m Nationwide members received a £100 payment from the building society. Now, Nationwide members will be wondering whether the offer will be replicated this year.

Providers pushed up their rates in April, with several offering more than 5% on a one-year fixed rate cash Isa.

I had a fixed rate Isa which matured with Shawbrook earlier this month.

The digital bank has introduced three new plans - Extra, Perks and Max - replacing its existing Plus and Premium plans for new customers. It marks the first changes to Monzo plans since it introduced subscriptions in July 2020.

When I visited the Mint, it was proud to highlight it had produced coins for 60 different countries over the decades, from Jamaica to Iceland, Suriname to Thailand. But the shift to card and contactless technology in the past decade has been rapid - not just in Britain, but in all sorts of remote pockets of the world. This move is yet a further sign of it.

It's not known how many of its 24 million customers were unable to log in to access savings accounts and Premium Bonds on Saturday, but hundreds reported they were still blocked until yesterday when the problem was sorted out. Despite speculation the major IT glitch was caused by a cyber attack, the Government-backed savings giant is adamant this was not behind the chaos caused for customers.

In July 2022, I hired a local firm to install a new kitchen in my home and build an extension. I paid a deposit of £5,000 upfront, but it said the work couldn't start straight away. I was then ignored for months, calling, emailing and even writing letters to their office, to which no-one replied. More than a year later, I searched Companies House and saw that the company had just gone into administration. I set about trying to reclaim the £5,000 deposit from my bank, Nationwide via a Visa payment dispute - but it says I was out of time, even though I applied before the stated 540-day deadline. Did I get it wrong?

Good rates are all well and good: but if they are lower than inflation, the value of your nest egg will still be eroded over time. For years, it has been impossible to beat inflation but today, according to rates scrutineer Savings Champion, there are 286 Isas that pay more than 4% - the rate at which consumer prices rose in the year to January.

Nikhil Rathi, the regulator's head honcho, gave the big banks the green light to axe free-in-credit banking in favour of fee-charging current accounts. As for the banks, I am sure their bosses are already rejoicing. Yet more profits to keep the City happy - and yet more directors' bonuses that would keep us mere mortals financially secure for many a lifetime. But they would have a fight on their hands here.

Savers who rushed to open Santander's 5.2% best buy easy-access account in September last year will soon see the rate on their account fall.

I am a UK national but have lived in France since 1986. I've banked with Barclays since 1965, but in late 2022 my cheques stopped being honoured. I was later told I could no longer keep my account due to the Brexit rule changes, and the account was closed. My problem is that getting the £15,000 I held with Barclays transferred to my French bank has been a nightmare. It has now been 10 months and my money is still stuck in a 'holding account' which I can't access. I have filled out all the required forms - some even multiple times. Recently I got a call from the Barclays complaints department and the person told me she couldn't see or find an account for me at Barclays at all - not even a holding account. This is quite concerning. Where is my money?
