    A High Interest Current Account or Savings Account perhaps? I keep mine in HSBC Account because it pays a better reate of interest than my savings account!

    Change your ISA to their Reward one paying 3% - it still allows 4 withdrawals a year.

    Look at a mixture of regular saver accounts (e.g. Barclays 6%, Halifax 4%) and topping up your ISA with the monthly amounts.

    Weird isn't it? the fixed one for 12 months with no access pays less :confused:
