Branch savings advice please
Comments

pookey said:Hi everyone,
Family friends have come into money and are asking for advice on savings accounts. They are elderly so don't do online banking so are looking for branch based accounts.
They currently bank with YBS, Halifax, Barclays , Nationwide and natwest.
The amount they have in savings is around £75k each.
I've had a very quick look and seen that YBS have a fixed branch based ISA around 4% and Rainy day saver around 4% too. This would account for 30k each.
Can anyone recommend what to do with the other 30k please? I would prefer to keep it simple and not open too many different accounts so it's easy for them to keep track if possible. They don't really need access to the money so it can be fixed.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
