The joke in the UK is that deposit rates are extremely low, often around 0.25% to 3%, the Bank of England bank rate is 0.5%, yet credit card companies are charging an average of 17% APR on balances! Unauthorised overdrafts can be as high as 19%.

You have to be very careful if you have any old savings accounts. Financial institutions have a nasty habit of reducing interest rates on their savings accounts over a period of time without saying anything.
I know of one account which is an ISA with a building society in the UK where the interest rate has dropped to a measly 0.1%!
Yet, open a new accout with them and they`ll give 2% on an ISA, or 3% on an online savings instant access account.
They really are sneaky.

Mine dropped to .1%
I should close it and open one again to get a higher rate. What is ISA?
