    Move it to a better account?

    Tesco pay 3% on £3000 or tsb pay 5% on £2000
    Remember the saying: if it looks too good to be true it almost certainly is.

    You're in the right place.

    The links at the top of this page are useful. Santander 123 may be of interest.

    The opportunity to upgrade your account is on the Santander web site, although this may not be the best course of action (but is better than nothing).

    In summary - if the rate isn't good enough, do something about it.
