Just wanted to share my experience to warn people before anyone follows this evening's notification to sort income into pockets.
I clicked on the notification, then it actually created a new instant savings account in addition to the one I had instead of picking the opened one.
Then I went to close the new instant savings account but I actually ended up closing the existing one.
So now I miss out on the (admittedly it's only .3%) remaining days at 2%, because the new account starts at 1.7%. Also it wasn't clear if you had to set this up with salary that hadn't been moved or could set it up based on past salary transfers.
Just wanted to warn people here, as it is so easy to make that mistake due to their terrible user interface.
