    Can anyone suggest another savings account similar to Zopa? Reached max deposit amount in Zopa.

    Most important thing is saving pots and that it doesn't appear as account in credit files. Thanks
    re: saving pots... what about Monzo ? they mention something on their site about saving pots...
    though the rates aren't great (1.55% with Shawbrook looks to be their top easy access rate)... I don't think you need a current account with them, but others here will know more than me if that is the case.
  • If you don't have a Monzo current account, you won't have access to their pots feature.

    You don't have to use the current account, though, other than possibly for adding/removing money from the savings pots. But as already mentioned, the rates are not exactly brilliant. More likely than not, Monzo are taking a slice of the interest their 3rd party providers are paying.
