Best place for £250 per month saving?

Options
Could anyone suggest the best account for saving £250 per month? I'm 35, would prefer access to the money in case of emergencies and would be ok with the interest being paid annually.

Thanks
Simon

    There's a thread here on regular savers.

    Other than that you could check the sticky best interest thread.

  • Take a look at Nationwide regular saver - 6.5% gross.
    £250 p/m max payment.
    Less interest on the whole balance in months your net balance does not increase by a certain amount.
    They say you can't put a value on life... but I live it at half price!
  • Have you got a cash ISA already. If not there are plenty of instant access ones about. Icesave is one of the best. You need £1k to set it up, so save for 4 months, then I think they allow subsequent top ups of £250.
  • FD are paying 8% p.a for a monthly investment of £250 in the Regular Savers Account.
