Any savings accounts come with a withdrawal card?

Hi, I'm looking to find a savings account which does come with a sort of debit card in case I need to cash in the funds in an emergency. Does anybody know if this exists?

    post office instant saver comes with a card but the wensite is a bit unwieldy. The interest rate is very good. I have used the card in a cash machine

    Yorkshire Building Society's Internet Saver account, which currently pays 5.10% AER, comes with a link card.

    However this is currently not accepting new applications, due to demand.

    Another option is the Citibank Flexible Saver account, here
  • I have a current account with the Halifax and also have a Web Saver (with cash card). When my wages are paid in to my current account I transfer my spending money for the month to my Web Saver and leave money to cover my bills in my current account.

    The thing that frustrates me is if I am shopping I have to make sure I have drawn enough cash from the Web Saver and have it in my pocket as the card is not a debit card.

    I don't really like the idea of having to Current Accounts which so far would seem the only option at the Halifax anyway.

    If you can afford to put in £1k a month, Coventry First's account pays 5.3% and is guaranteed to exceed the BoE rate by 0.55% for one year after you open it.

    It comes with a debit card
  • Is there no cash cards on the market that allow a debit facility ?
  • the natwest first reserve savings account comes with a solo debit card if that helps.
