    We believe you lol.

    How about sticking the cash in an ING Isa? They are offering 6.55 % for 6 months and then it goes down to 6% but you will be withdrawing it about then.

    has disadvantage of losing u 600.00 from your isa annual limit as u wouldnt be able to replace it again,,unless u are happy to lose 600.00 from a years isa limit y not stick 500.00 in yorkshires reg saver account where u can meet the conditions of the account by merely sticking 10.00 a month in ,,,500.00 in now other 100.00 in april and 10.00 a month in thereafter unless u wish to pay in more a month..1 withdrawel a year can be made so u can withdrawel the 600 if u wish at any time...yorkshires monthly reg savercurrentely pays 7% gross (5.6 net) and lasts longer than a year if required whereas other higher paying monthly savers either dont last longer than 12 months or have more restrictive deposit terms
