Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.People saving with NatWest could win £1,000 this summer if they turn on a “round ups” feature on their account.
The bank said it will award 10 customers £1,000 each.
The round ups feature rounds up the cost of a purchase to the nearest pound and the spare change is automatically paid into a chosen savings account.
The competition runs until June 30, with winners drawn at random on July 14.
The prizes are aimed at those turning the feature on in the mobile banking app during the period of the competition.
NatWest has also introduced a “double ups” feature, enabling customers to automatically move double the spare change into their savings. The account opening age has also been lowered from 18 to 16 years old.
The bank’s digital regular saver account pays 3.25% on balances up to £1,000 and people can put in up to £150 each month.
Some other providers also run competitions, for example Nationwide Building Society has a member prize draw.
