I really want to start! Can anyone recommend a bank they use? And the interest rate?

No, Barclays.
Wait, was it Halifax?
Maybe Nationwide but that's a building society not a bank, so it probably doesn't fit the brief, but I heard they had an account that paid compound interest too.0 -
Funnily enough I bumped into someone on the street earlier and she said that it's actually the International Bank of Lagos (UK) Ltd that does this. The compound interest rate they currently offer is -99.9% which is pretty good I'm sure you'll agree.0

Not sure about the seriousness of your question!
But, assuming it is serious, all banks pay compound interest.
Only, of course, after the initial interest has been paid and only, of course, if the account continues to pay interest anyway after that interest payment.
So - I'd recommend any bank. As for interest rates - look at the comparison tables on MSE main site.0
