    Is there a minimum amount requiered when we transfer money to icesave ?
    You require a minimum balance of £250 to earn the headline rate of interest, and there is no mimium amount for a transaction.

    The minimum additional deposit is £100, but as far as I'm aware it isn't enforced.

    I am with Icesave and i think they are spot on.

    Transfers in take 4 working days and transfers back out take 2 working days

    The site is easy to use and they are a good replacement for ING Direct "poor" interest rate.

    So far I have encountered no problems.

    Quick set-up with minimal hassle, bright blue envelopes make a change, and simple to use account :)

    I am thinking of opening an account with this bank, can anyone tell me if their service is any good? i read a post a while ago and some people were complaining about different aspects of this bank and its service.
    Also, how safe is your money with a foreign bank?




    All replies most welcome.


    Many thanks
    Eck.
