Why only internet banking?

Not very MSE to not use the net to lower your spending, and learn other ways to save. Not to mention entertainment etc.

Which accounts are you thinking of? Easy access without restrictions come with much lower rates than you quote.
Chelsea Branch Instant - 0.5%
Yorkshire Access Saver - 0.25%
Skipton. Is there an easy access branch account? (2.75% account requires 15 days notice for penalty-free withdrawals.)

I would encourage you to manage your money online to get the best rates.

Mass market there's the Everyday Saver account from Halifax paying 2% including a 12 month bonus.

But you could get 2.8% for much the same from Halifax on the net and the links at the top of this page show better options than that.

With the obvious exception of posting on this forum , do you REALLY only use the internet for banking at the moment? Also, I assume you've looked to see if you can pay less for your broadband?

I think I earn enough commission off Top Cashback to more than cover my Internet costs.

Being quiet central in london ,I find loads of wifi free now & am quiet tired of spending so many hours lookin at a screen
Then you have to have so many passwords & memorable info
A bank account paying near 2-3% where you just phone or withraw from machine sounds better

How much will those phone calls cost you? They won't be free.
