Santander - confirmed with them. OneEdge Saver (6% for a yr) for each current account (1 single and 2 for joint). Only downside is the £3 mthly fee for each current account, but if you have some SOs in there it compensates

It is well documented that you can avoid the fee, by not setting up DD’s. It’s now possible to have three, the two you suggest plus an Edge Explorer account allows one as well.

Anything to do with RS? Perhaps you posted this in the wrong thread.

See posts passim for how to avoid the £3 fee, and you can have 2 sole Edge current accounts.

The Edge Saver is like a regular saver, only it allows you to put all your money in in one go at the beginning

Sent my cheque off last Thursday, in 2nd class envelope provided. Sent them an email this morning to see if they received it. Replied that account was funded yesterday and welcome pack on route.
Cheque must not have cleared yet though as cash is still there.

Similarities: high interest rate, matures (well, rate drops) after a year
Differences: initial lump sum deposit rather than smaller monthly payments

I guess it doesn't officially belong in the regular saver thread, but no harm in discussing it here.

How is it like a RS? surely it's a easy access savings account that has a limit on how much you can put in and get interest.

It's also a useful feeder account if you need to quickly top up a santander current account for the periodic regular saver standing orders when you're somewhat disorganised!
