disposable income.. best bank account to save money?

jason87

I save roughly 200 to 300 a month, what's the best account to put this into?

I tried the nationwide flex account but they charge me all the time for an overdraft i don't even use!
If there an account with good rates or anything, or should I be looking into something else?

Thanks

Why are you looking at bank accounts instead of savings accounts?

The majority will mix and match their accounts as who has a good savings account doesnt necessarily have a good current account.

If you are saving £300 a month the First Direct has an 8% for 12 months deal at the moment on their Regular Saver account, you need top open 2 other accounts with them if you dont intend to use them for your current account but most would argue its worth the hassle

Why 2 other accounts? I thought you only had to hold one other qualifying account or product if you dont want to or can't put £1,500 into the account every month:undecided
