Big banks accused of doing little for savers
By Kevin PeacheyCost of living correspondent
Big banks are doing " as little as they can get away with" when setting higher savings rates for loyal customers, an influential group of MPs has said.
The Treasury Committee has been scathing of the returns being offered to savers by The Major High Street banks as interest rates have risen.
It has called on customers to Shop Around for better deals.
New Bank of England figures suggest people have been shifting their savings to get better interest rates.

This type of account, offered across various providers, currently has an average interest rate of 5. 21%, compared with a 1. 96% average return on easy-access accounts.
Alice Haine, Personal Finance analyst at investment platform Bestinvest, said: " The era of cheap money is well and truly over, so households should prioritise clearing expensive unsecured debt and building up a Rainy Day pot to withstand any unexpected expenses.
" Those fortunate enough to have spare money to save should move fast, as The Top deals get snapped up quickly. "
In response to criticism, bank bosses have argued that attempts have been made to encourage savers to look at all the available deals.
