Barclays 6% savings
I've got one of the Barclays 6% regular savings accounts, and I think at the end of the year (Feb 2010) it turns into an ISA. I've already got an ISA with another bank and I'd like to know how I can get hold of the money in Barclays without paying tax on my savings and ultimately losing most of the interest I've gained? I…

Disgusted
I can't believe what I just received in the mail. An invitation to take out an A&L "over 50s" savings account with 5% annual interest. Maximum savings amount at that rate is £2500. So... save £2500 and you get £125 interest after one year. Sounds good? But wait..... Take away the "small fee" of "only" £10 a month and what…

I have a 60 day ISA that I have not paid any money into this year (2009/2010) with RBS. I found out I was only getting 0.1% interest on this account. RBS offer an instant access ISA giving 3.5% but would not allow me to transfer all of the 8k into it. I therefore opened a new ISA and withdrew £3600 and paid it into the new…
