Looking to save/invest £15,000 for a year or so?

Hi all,

Looking to save/invest £15,000 for a year or so?

I could do with access at short notice as I may need it for house deposit at some point.

Any suggestions?

    3 x Lloyds vantage accounts with 5k in each?

    Pays 4% gross interest monthly on balances between 5-7k as long as you pay in 1k a month (you can take it straight out again)

    That sounds sensible if you're prepared to go through the process of opening 3 current accounts with the same bank. If you do go for it the best setup is probably a cycle of three £1000 standing orders moving money through the accounts on, say, the 15th of each month.
