    HSBC regular saver pays 8%

    Barclays 12.5% and Alliance and Leicester 12% if you have a current account that pays in £1,000 a month.

    The 12.5% Barclays account is not available any more.

    I did not know that there is no loss of interest in DD. You always learn something.
    I already have A&L current account so no 12% for me. Also have HSBC current account but salary does not go into it so no HSBC regular saver for me either.

    What about the Halifax 'High Interest Current Account'? Transfers from there would be instant and the 6% rate is pretty good (would average 6.58% on the whole amount invested, just to muddy the water)

    Good point Milarky, I am thinking about switching my current account from A&L (I am in 3rd yr and it does not offer good interest rate now) to Halifax high interest current account. That should make us few more bobs!!
