    Nationwide flex direct as it has a good rate of interest 5%. Also good if you have a physical nationwide in your town. See if you can get a friend to refer you...you get £100 and they do too. If you don't know anyone with a Nationwide account pm me and I'll refer you...

    Given the rate sam_scott is posting low quality responses to old messages tonight I am not convinced he is reading the existing responses or considering the situation much before replying.

    The OP has already said that they have a poor credit history and currently operate a basic bank account, so it is unlikely that they would get a FlexDirect account.

    Oh, and you can't tout for referrals here.
