The "Save 12k in 2016" Thread!

george4064

Im going to wait till 1st Feb til I declare my Jan savings.

1 thing I know I will have saved is £200/m into HTB ISA.

I need to look into opening another savings account if Im going to save more money in cash (I already have TSB classic account and Nationwide Flexdirect), as opposed to going into S&S ISA. I think ultimately I will save the balance of monthly savings after £200 taken for htb isa, split between cash savings and S&S ISA.

I realise im waffling now, but just wanted to post my plan to motivate me

How about the TSB and Nationwide monthly savers? Both 5%, both flexible payments, both accessible if need be, and you've already got the required current accounts.

Thank you! I will take a look, first I'll open the Nationwide one and then the TSB RS.

Quick question, they say that 'interest is paid on maturity'. Is maturity 12 months from the date the account was opened?

Without checking the T&Cs, I'd say "yes".

Yes. I opened the Nationwide regular saver a couple of days ago and got an email stating maturity was exactly one year from when I opened it.

A couple of extra pounds in Top Cashback payments today. Every little helps right!?

Have listed a couple of things on Ebay and have sold some books to WeBuyBooks for £17. I have loads more books in the garage to sort and send but wanted to do just a few as its my first time.
