Our Expert Opinion on Market Harborough BS Easy Access ISA

Jan WatermannCo-Founder, DepositScout

Market Harborough BS's Easy Access ISA pays 1.6%, which is below the market average for Cash ISAs and sits 3.65% behind the category leader at 5.25%, so this is a hard rate to recommend on yield alone. It also falls 1.50% below CPI inflation of 3.1% (Aug 2026), meaning your money is losing real purchasing power. The £100 minimum is low and transfers in are accepted, which suits someone consolidating old ISAs, but the £20,000 cap limits it to a single tax year's allowance. I would look at alternatives like Monzo's Select Access Cash ISA at 3.15% before settling here.
