    I got an isa with Co-op, its really crappy rates but its a start! Went to Natwest who were totally lovely about giving me an isa untill I said I was a discharged BR, they couldnt get me out of there quick enough and the lady was really rude! I also have an account with nationwide however they still wont upgrade me from the cash card account to a chip and pin card :( Typical now I have no debt and a bit of money I cant get a decent rate savings account to put it in, doesnt make any sense to me!

    Oh no I was considering going to Natwest! The only thing with Yorkshire Building Society is there is no branch near me. Do you need to go in to a branch?

    Have just been on website and it's given me account details etc. I'm always suspicious when things seem so straight forward!!!
