Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 The building society has said it will lower rates on a number of its savings accounts Credit: Alamy The moves comes after rate-setters on the BoE's Monetary Policy Committee cut the base rate from 4.5% to 4.25%. This was the fourth interest rate cut since 2020. The base rate is used by lenders to determine the interest rates offered to customers on savings and borrowing costs. A base rate cut can mean that mortgage rates are lowered, which is good news for homeowners. But it can mean that savers lose out as the interest they earn on savings will drop As the base rate falls, some savings providers, including Skipton have chosen to lower the interest rates on some savings accounts. Some 89 savings accounts provided by the bank will have interest rates lowered. That includes it's Easy Access Saver account which will see the interest lowered from 3.05% AER to 2.80% from next month. AER, or Annual Equivalent Rate, is used to show you what you could earn from a savings account over a year. It's Retirement Saver will also see interest lowed from 2.80% to 2.55%.

Websites such as MoneyFacts share the best offers on the market for savings and other types of bank accounts. Sally Conway, Savings Expert at Shawbrook Bank said that while savers may feel the pinch, this "doesn't mean it's time to settle for less". "In fact, with rates lowering across the board, now more than ever it pays to look beyond the high street. Specialist providers often offer some of the best rates available yet remain one of the best kept secrets in savings." She added: "Now's the time to be proactive. Don't let your savings get left behind – explore your options and make sure your money's working harder, especially when inflation is still a concern.'
