They are quick enough to reduce interest rates paid so you would expect that they reflect the increase.
Bit like petrol and oil prices

You would think a bit of foreign currency coming in might be attractive but I can see they want to prop up the TL.
Pleased for those who are ‘all in’ on the TL though
