B/F& I would like to open savings accounts for his 3 kids as part of their Xmas pressie. They are ages 10, 12 & 14.

Does anyone know the best accounts to open in terms of interest rates (& maybe freebies)?

I guess he will need to get hold of their passports or birth certs from his ex to be able to open accounts for them?

Any advice welcome - thanks!

The best advice you can give your children: "Take responsibility for your own actions...and always Read the Small Print!"
..."Mind yer a*se on the step!"
