High, high, highest Interest!

Options
Hello,

I have just joined the forum after spending several hours fruitless searching for the 'perfect'(!) savings account / ISA.

I am looking to invest a lump sum of approx. £2000 and am obviously looking for the highest possible returns.

DOes anyone know of any better deals than the current ISA deal from Alliance Leicester at 8% interest?

Thanks

    Have a look again at the A&L rate. I have a feeling it is only available to people who have or are prepared to open one of their other accounts. Otherwise the post above will lead you to the list of best rates.
