Online saving: would you take the plunge?


With an average interest rate of 2%, an online savings account yields almost twice as much as an old fashioned account.
Interestrates have never been so low. Bij offering their clients merely 1%, banks follow the current short term interest rate from the European Central Bank. Although a classic savings account offers you a larger loyalty premium (0,65% in comparison with 0,50%), it is quite obvious that opening a web account will yield more on the long term.

Clear flow: good job. The focus does shift from 'accounts' to 'interest rates' to 'banks' to 'you as a user'. Try to rewrite the content from a maximum of two points of view.

Stylistically, good variety of sentence starts (S1, S3, S4). This keeps the text lively.

Accuracy:

S2: Interest rates (two words)
S3: By offering
S4: 0.65% and 0.50%
