in Budgeting & bank accounts
After having received confirmation letter from LTSB, I am looking forwards to opening an account with Barclays. My main thing is it has to be a basic account, but what would be the best? Do they even offer a savings account thats basic? I want to close down my HBOS account and run my paypal transactions on the new one with Barclays.

Many thanks.

    Yeh I received the letter today for the LTSB account - still waiting on the card. I was interested in the barclays because they offer free internet security software for internet banking customers.
