Is the an instant access savings a/c that can feed DDs going out?

Newbird

Anyone know of a savings account paying a decent amount of interest that can feed direct debits going out for bills etc?

Can't use A&L current as applicants need to be over 21, and my son is not. LTSB I think applicants have to be over 18, so that could be an option - unless anyone knows of anything better??

I just seem to have some distant memory in my head about a savings account that could feed DDs out. Or maybe that is no longer the case

(Just trying to save the effort of pulling money back into a current account.)

Thx both. My son (account for him) is 19, but maybe we'll have to put up with transferring to and from savings as he's getting 4.75% with Nationwide esavings at the mo....
