anyone have savings account with 'pots'?

roxiepie_2

hello everyone

almost at the point where I can start saving (yay), and so I'm looking for an easy access savings account which I can use to stash a monthly amount of money.

want to use this money for various things (haircuts, dentist, birthdays etc), so it would be great if I could view it in seperate pots. anyone know of an account with internet access that offers this? I'm sure such a thing exists as I seem to remember peeps on here discussing it before!

thanks in advance

Its a Principality E Saver, fab with the wherewithall to have loads of small pots for all your different funds. Only need £1 to open. Good Luck

Thanks dopey - I just opened one up. Very quick!

Can't see how to view seperate pots, but this may just be because I've not got any cash in it yet

oooh I think you've got to have cash in it. I must admit didn't know I could have pots until I had money in it iyswim. I was just looking for somewhere to hide my little stash from all of the orrible banks!

Oooh thanks for that, in a few months I'll need to open another account for a few different little savings, it sounds just what I'll need. Although I'll probably have forgotten about it by then!

ING direct do the same! I've got about 8-10 'pots' and can transfer money from/to a current account within a couple of days.

thanks everyone maybe i'm being dense, but they will all still sit in the same account won't they?! It will just be that you can view them in seperate pots, right?

just transferred a WHOLE pound into it!

hi
do you know how many pots you can have?

If you use internet banking you should be able to have pots linked to it. For example I'm with barclays and there's about 4 or 5 seperate parts of my account, which can be really confusing sometimes but I didn't even ask for them! They come in handy though.
