Over 65's

I have a lump sum I want to invest in an high interest easy access A/c. So the money is readily available for a house purchase at short notice. Anyone have any experience of the right account?

Thanks.

    simply the best paying instant access saving account(s)

    if less than 75,000 then you only need on bank otherwise more unless you use national saving

    I know a lot of people are investing their money in the UK due to increasing exchange rates.
    Weird answer. I don't think the OP is looking for that at all...
    All of JessiF posts are advertising that company, I smell spam.

    edit: post now deleted, so I have amended my quote.

    Yes, but I don't meet your criteria to comment because I'm under 65. If you still need help in a few decades, let me know.
