    Why not? It's the equivalent of a deposit account; admittedly for small sums at the start, and it's fixed.

    You can get either 1.00% or 1.15% at NS&I and deposit up to a million pounds if you want and be covered.
    I know it is not fixed.

    It is soul destroying the pitiful interest amounts we are getting now

    1% is too low for me. I am making monthly payments into my daughters 3.25% NS&I Junior ISA instead.

    And I'm sure she's thrilled you are giving her all this money. :smile:

    If you don’t have the Principality BS Regular Saver 22 it is still on offer at 1.50% far better than Virgin
