    Joey I would really love that. been wanting to research it but can't really justify any more amazon purchases just now.
    Will pay you for it though. unless of course someone has already asked you for it.

    I put a lot of thought into my mini-move last night and there are so many things I am putting off due to time constraints and just basic fear of the unknown. So I looked through the threads on here and decided to focus on two things - my ISA and my Utilities. I went to the bank this morning to find out what interest rate I have on my ISA now and was shocked to find out it had dropped to 0.1% !! That means that I was earning about £300 in interest 3 years ago and only earned £4.99 this year! Gobsmacked was not the word!#2

    Yup! same here! Although to be fair I did know how much my ISA had fallen to - just couldn't find another one that was a good rate and NOT online only - until now - have just opened a cash ISA with Barclays 3.10% at the mo- will drop a bit in a year (usual old bonus thing) and is a variable rate (most are unless you fix). You can manage in branch, online etc. only trouble is you can't transfer in!:( There's always a catch...
    There will be many shocked people when they get their accounts made up now and realise the banks and building societies have been paying us less than 1% on our savings- whilst lending that same money at more than 10% interest!
