* Best Current account for Joint plus savings acct*

Hi all, I have been trawling through pages of posts, but would now like to ask some advice for my specific circumstances.

Hubby and I are in the process of buying our first home and need:

1 joint current account - where are mortgage payments will go out
1 joint savings account - for emergency things
1 high interest 'year' account - for regular monthly payments, as we are going interest only, and paying the remainder into a high interest account with the view to pay the lump sum at the end of each year.

The interest only mortgage will be £778 so a lot of account have a £1000 minimum requirement.

Any advice or experience much appreciated.
