  • Can you absolutely guarantee that you won't need to touch the money for a certain amount of months? If so, you might like to look at a fixed rate savings account. The Yorkshire BS is offering 4.55% on a 9 month "bond", or Nationwide is offering 3.5% on 6 and 9 month bonds and 3.75% on a one year. But bear in mind that there will be penalties if you need to close the account early.

    But most people here will only be advising you based on information which you can find for yourself. For instance I found out the info above here.
