Hi - What's the best thing to do with a lump sum (from a house sale) for a couple of months max? Instant access needed and no-risk. Is a low-interest Instant Access the only option? Or should I just stick the lot in Premium Bonds?

I hadn't yet read the T&Cs at all, as I hadn't yet considered PBs as a serious option. Sorry I didn't indicate that with a smiley face. But thank you for taking the time to respond.0 -
