100k in Alliance & Leicester

Hi

Would like to know what's the best situation, I have sold my house and I'm looking for a new house to down size! I have 100k sitting in a esaver account with the Alliance and Leicester. I need to open another two high interest accounts. What do you think to First Save and Kaupthing Edge savings account?

    If you are saying that you need to open extra accounts because of the protected limit, forget it. A&L are Part of Spanish bank Santander and one of the strongest in the Eurozone.
    If it is for better interest rates you could use KE and Firstsave, Firstsave are a Nigerian bank but covered by UK regulation.
