  • Have you considered Kaupthing Edge? You do need £1000 to open though.

    Or maybe ING, West Bromich or Bradford & Bingley.

    KE's minimum balance on their Savings account is now £100 (changed around May/June, from memory); although minimum balance is £1,000 on their Fixed Term Deposit.

    Have a look at Kaupthing as mentioned above, Icesave, and many of the others...
