    Hi try filling up your tax free allowance first and then look for a savings account that is high interest. Try reading Martins Saving page for more ideas.

    Vervin,
    Here is a post I wrote to someone else last night. You might find this a better deal than SS ISA or Cash ISA. It's a SIPP (self invested personal pension). Big tax breaks with a SIPP. actually 66% growth on your investment as a high rate tax payer.

    You could even call Hargreave Lansdown who could help advise on best of ISA or SIPP to suit your needs. Good luck
