Our Expert Opinion on Loughborough Building Society Instant Access Cash ISA

Jonny PeaseCo-Founder, DepositScout

This instant access Cash ISA from Loughborough Building Society pays 2.60%, which is below the market average for Cash ISAs and sits 2.65% behind the category leader at 5.25%, so it is hard to recommend on rate alone. At current CPI of 3.1%, the 2.60% rate is also 0.50% below inflation, meaning your money is losing real value. The £20,000 cap is worth noting as a genuine constraint if you hold existing ISA savings you want to transfer in. If you want instant access within a similar range, Monzo's Instant Access Cash ISA pays 2.75%, or Tembo's HomeSaver Cash ISA pays 3.00%.
