Savings

Can anyone recommend some good savings accounts worth opening? I.e. great interest rates, easy to use, easy to invest money and withdraw... georgit79 (Fri 12:59 26/Nov/04)

Try

 

www.moneyfacts.co.uk

or

www.fool.co.uk

 

Both of these offer good impartial advice. I opened an internet savings account with ING recently - everything seems easy enough but not taken any out yet

I�ve had  the account  since January and they have consistently paid top interest rates � currently 5.0%. It is dead easy to move your money around.  Accounts like these are ideal if you just want to put away rainy day money or an emergency fund  that you can access quickly and easily but if you want to build up some cash savings, it is probably better to go for a mini cash ISA as the interest you receive is tax free.

Doh!  The account I'm referring to above is an ING Direct account, the same as Oneeyedvic. It's only available via the internet.

I've just opened an Online Saver account with the Alliance and Leicester.  It pays 5.35% on anything from �1 upwards.  You have to nominate a current account, not necessarily with the A & L, and investments and withdrawals are done through that.  It has all been very easy so far - touch wood!

I think the Nationwide take some beating for their rates, internet banking and what they call an e-savings account.

They`re on every High Street and you can use any cash machine anywhere.

Been with them for years and have nothing but good things to say about them.

Do think about a mini cash ISA which offers tax free interest
