Pity Tandem don't offer pots like Zopa or allow you to open a 2nd instant access account.

A second account? You can deposit up to £250,000 into the Tandem Instant Access Account; more than enough for most folk.

Yes but it's nice to be able to separate money for different things you are saving for.TiVo_Lad said:A second account? You can deposit up to £250,000 into the Tandem Instant Access Account; more than enough for most folk.

I use a free app called saving goal. I don't enter a goal. I just use it as pot app.Growingold said:

Agree with you, that's why I like Zopa pots and the ability to open multiple savings account within the app with Chase. Unfortunately Chase is not competitive at the moment compared to others.Growingold said:

Arguably, it is better to have more than one "app-only" IA with different banks. It's rare, but apps do go wrong. Happened to me with Chase and with Chip. In such situation if you need your money immediately you can withdraw from another bank.ToastLady said:
