Pros and cons

Chase UK

Pros

  • No monthly fee on the current account, at £0
  • Currency conversion fee of 0%, first of 312 brands
  • Savings pays 2.25% at a variable rate, variable, with easy access and no notice period

Cons

  • The savings account needs a Chase current account, so it cannot stand alone
  • The saver rate is variable, so it moves with the Bank Rate and is not locked in
  • Support runs through chat, phone and email only, and the service is digital-only

monobank

Pros

  • A headline rate of 16% on a fixed deposit sits far above PayPal Colombia at 3.3%.
  • The monthly fee is UAH 0, and sending money to another IBAN account costs 0 UAH for transfers to any IBAN account.
  • Currency conversion is 0%, so converting between currencies costs nothing.

Cons

  • The term runs 12 to 24 and the deposit renews itself by default, so a long commitment keeps rolling.
  • A minimum deposit of UAH 1,000 has to sit in the account before the balance starts earning.
  • The headline rate of 16% is below Plazo ES at 24.19% and AXI Card Tarjeta y Credito at 21.59%.

Who each suits

Chase UK

Who it suits

  • People in the UK who want one app for current account and savings
  • Savers who want easy access rather than a fixed term
  • Anyone who spends in other currencies and wants a low conversion fee

Who should look elsewhere

  • Anyone wanting a standalone savings account, since a Chase current account is required
  • Savers who want a fixed rate, since the rate is variable
  • People who prefer in-person service, since the service is digital-only

monobank

Who it suits

  • A Ukrainian business that can leave its balance alone for 12 to 24 and wants the return fixed.
  • A freelancer paid by Ukrainian clients who wants local account details in the form of iban.
  • A saver who reads the rate before anything else: 16% sits well above the 3% median across the site.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Rate chasers: Plazo ES lists 24.19% and AXI Card Tarjeta y Credito 21.59%, both above monobank's 16%.
  • Anyone who needs the money on demand, because the term runs 12 to 24 and the deposit renews itself by default. PayPal Colombia at 3.3% is worth weighing for anyone who accepts a much smaller return.

Questions about each

Chase UK

What does Chase UK cost to run?+

The current account carries a monthly fee of £0, so day to day banking costs nothing in fees. The currency conversion fee is 0%, ranking first of 312 brands. There is no separate charge listed for the savings account either.

How is my money protected?+

Deposits sit under the FSCS up to GBP 85,000. The account is provided by J.P. Morgan Europe Limited, which is headquartered in the United Kingdom. The same legal entity backs both the current account and the saver, so that protection figure applies across the relationship.

monobank

What rate does monobank pay on its deposit?+

The deposit advertises a headline rate of 16% and the rate is fixed, so the figure holds for the whole placement rather than drifting with the market. For context, PayPal Colombia lists 3.3% on its savings product. That gap is the main reason a saver would pick this account.

How long do I have to leave the money in the deposit?+

The published term is 12 to 24 and the rate is fixed for that whole period. Terms can be taken as a fixed stretch or as a flexible one, so the length you sign up for is a choice rather than a single window. Readers who want shorter placements should set this against an easy-access account.
