    Putting £250 into a monthly saver for a year that is offering 2.25% will give you.......drum roll....wait for it.....£31.13 in interest.

    as awful as the interest rates are its still better than nothing.
    if you saw £31.13 lying about in the street you would collect it up and dance with joy :D so on the annual anniversary of your monthly savings when £31.13 goes into your account its a dance with joy day

    planning what to do with your £31.13 is part of the fun - you can find some nice meals out on groupon or livingsocial, if you go through the travelogue website you can find odd nights away for £35, you can treat yourself to something in the sales ...

    :D Thought this info would interest you. Think it only came out yesterday or day before. You sound like me, taking money out the ISA's etc. I get worried when a note pops up asking me if I'm sure I would like to withdraw money from the ISA as something to do with losing tax benefits. Cant understand it really. Only know that 2.25% interest is better than 0.25% :eek::eek:

    i had a look at the webpage and there is a Virgin red app you can download which you gives you entry to a monthly draw and offers and there is something about free coffee at Neros :j

    I came very late to ISAs but fortunately I got brave and opted for a 5 year one which now has 3 years to run - best move as that one is paying me 4% and then last year the best I could get was 2.15% for a 2 year one - this year its 1.10% so I am just using it as a donor account - I don't think we will ever see interest rates of over 5% ever again
