Hi
Can you anyone advise me pls....
My little boy have £1800 in his halifax savings, been into branch as they said could have 5%, to which seems not, I cant transfer his money to that account only open one where we save monthly of 5% - was happy to save him some every month but also would like his money that he already has in that account.
What i want is a high intrest rate and the option to add money as a when even monthly dont mind - Seen fixed rates for 3-5yrs but seems i cant add extra money to these only the original amount opened with, any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Emma
