Subject: Re: Egg interest rate changes today
Another Egg email for Savers, very carefully worded to be misleading at
a quick read through in my opinion.
Dear Mr xxxx
As you may already know, the Bank of England recently increased the Base
Rate from 4.50% to **4.75%.** Although the Base Rate guarantee on the
Egg Savings Account (investor) expired at the end of 2002, we have
adjusted the Egg Savings Account (investor) interest rate in line with
the Bank of England Base Rate since then. Following the latest Base Rate
increase, we'll be keeping the Egg Savings Account (investor) interest
rate at **4.50% gross pa/AER (variable).**
