topt Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Sandman not sure where your figure of 3.5% comes from but go here http://www.tescobank.com/current-accounts/?tpfpgid=tb-home&navid=carousel-slide1 and current accounts 3% on a small amount and Chiang mai has already given you the savings account figure above. There are a few current account offers around 3% and even 4% with Lloyds but only paid out for a relatively low amount of money - and with other conditions like you have to pay in a regular amount every month.

nkg Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 The interest rate reflects the risk ... nobody remember the banking crisis of 2008? Icesave was massively popular in the UK.

wooloomooloo Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 (edited) Santander at 3% is currently the favorite account. Absolutely correct. My Santander current account gives me 3% interest. Not bad in the grand scheme of things. I also gain cashback on my 123 account with direct debits and shopping at the major supermarkets. And I also get cashback at certain stores from having my credit cards linked to a Quidco account. Edited June 16, 2014 by wooloomooloo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
