Best Buys guide for savings could be better.

Okay, it is well intended, free and I believe generates some well deserved referral income for Martin Lewis's web site...........

However, it is very clearly only listing providers who have chosen to pay it to do so. Many fixed rate bond products which should be at the top end of the table of best buys are not listed and there are a couple of glaring ommissions on e-savings accounts; Yorksgire Building Society and Bradford & Bingley.

    The problem with many fixed rate products is that they are time limited special offers and appear without much notice and some vanish again as quickly as a week later.
