    Thanks for the replies :)

    I have already had the national wide accounts so taken advantage of the 5% interest there

    My pension has approx 50k in it and I am paying 700 a month into it so quite happy there

    I have some funds in an isa but that only has approx 1.5k in it

    I am waiting for my 5% 250 a month from TSB to mature next month so looking for something to do with this for the longer term

    We have an endowment due to mature in 2018 we should get approx 16k from that .. 10 k for the pension and 6k for the house /car fund is the plan for that one

    Not really got any other savings as such as when oh finds we have money it seems to burn a hole in his pocket hence the wanting to tie it away and the reason for 3 accounts ... the every day savings /holiday one we can access when he feels the need to splurge the other two I want some thought out into before spending

    Check out the rest of the high interest current accounts, el la Tesco, BOS Vantage and regular savings, 1st Direct, HSBC, M&S should work for savings.

    Difficult access. Definitely more Pensions contributions. Not much more else that is more difficult to access than that.

    Save 12K in 2020 # 38 £0/£20,000
