I went with Asda (cant remember exactly who they do it through)..... however I only went with them to get the £25 worth of George vouchers that they gave you for doing it!

There were so many on offer that I just picked the one that gave me the most!

I went with the Nationwide beacuse as far as the stakeholder option went they were all much of a muchness & I have had fantastic customer service from Nationwide in the past;)

we invested using squaregain, my husband is in the industry (so to speak) so can keep an eye on her investment.

We used Forresters - they come to the house so it made things easy.

i put mine in asda for the vouchers. i haven't decided yet where it will stay, i don't think i want it being invested, i'll probably end up with my bank in an interest based savings account, but for the moment it's with asda.

there was a similar scheme that gave a free teddy called 'teddy trust'. it was a tiny teddy when asking for info then a larger one when you opened an account, also a birthday gift on maturity. i didn' gop with them though becuse i'm only paying £5 a month into it and they wanted £10 minimum.

I wanted a basic savings account with a decent interest rate so I went for the Ipswich Building Society (it took me 10 months to decide though!!!). I just don't like the idea that once it's in there you cant move it to another provider? Or am I wrong and you just can't physically withdraw it?
