Hi,
I am looking for an Savings account with a cheque book. I know Halifax does Asset Reserve Cheque Account.
Does anyone else do it?
Thanks

https://www.cahoot.com do a cheque account that pays a lot more than Halifax.
3.65% interest if you have a chequebook http://www.cahoot.com/rates_fees/rates_fees.html#current
The Halifax pays a measly 2.32% on £5,000+ (and a paltry 0.90% on lower balances)http://www.halifax.co.uk/savings/personalrates.shtml#Asset_Reserve_Cheque_Account
Also open a cahoot savings account to get 5% interest and internet transfers between the two accounts will be instantaneous.

Any particular reason why you need the cheque book directly linked to the savings ac and not a c/ac with linked savings? if not try intelligent finance or nationwide which pay competitively and have linked savings accounts.0

can you not just visit thew branch to draw a cheque on a better account?0
