Hello
I am a complete novice to the financial world and would like advice on saving £100 a month for a minimum of 5 years with the flexibility to withdraw after 5 years if I want.
As stated, I am a novice and would be grateful of some simple advice
Thanks

You could start off with a Regular Savings account for a year. They pay between 4% and 6% interest.
At the end of the year, empty the account into a simple interest-paying current account (e.g. Tesco, TSB), and start another Regular Saver, drip-fed from the current account, and from your usual £100.
Rinse and repeat each year.0 -
I agree with Colston! First Direct and Marks and Spencers do 6% regular savers, which I think are the best on the market.0
