Any body know the Name of the Savings account Matin speaks of that Nation wide do ;I've had a look on their site & cant see it there as it paltry interest rates there ? also does one have to pay in a certain amount every month please ?

Do you mean the FlexDirect current account that pays 5% for 12 months?

- or an ISA which has possibly just been withdrawn?

Let's ask the question in a slightly different way - how much do you want to save, for how long, what's your tax rate?

I think you are writing about a current account, not a savings account. Current accounts aren't marketed as savings accounts. So did you have a FlexDirect current account in the last 12 months?

Or are you really looking at a savings account?

You will have noticed my use of the word "marketed". Martin doesn't market Nationwide accounts, they do.

And have you already had a FlexDirect current account for a year?
