    Thank you for all your comments. I have seen the link posted above, but can someone suggest a bank that isn’t connected with the Nationwide please? 

    Thanks. 
    Take your pick from here. Not sure what the Nationwide issue is but no banks are connected to Nationwide.

    Do you really need an ISA?

    Interest rates are still slightly better on non ISA savings accounts. There are several threads on the Savings & Investment board listing the best available Regular Savers, Instant/Easy Access & Fixed Rate accounts, depending on how much & how you want to save.
