Savings account in 3 persons name

Dot

Can anyone point me in the direction of an instant access account which can be in the name of three people and which gives a decent interest rate? At the moment I have a NatWest esavings account but the rate is not good and any other provider I have contacted only allow two names on the account - unless it is opened as a partnership which, of course, has revenue/tax implications.

Abbey can put up to 4 names on a savings account, except for esaver (as it isn't run through the savings account system). If you want instant access it would be the Flexible Saver which pays 3.55% IIRC.

Thank you Fatboy_NSS (what does NSS stand for?) - can anyone beat this for me?

I think any account with internet access can be used as a joint account. A lot of them pay about 5% now.

Where can we set up a four-way joint account? - this short article is about current accouns. However, current accounts usually pay very low interest.

I do not just want a joint account, Grumbler, as I need three names on it - usually they will only accept two

I understand this. What i ment was opening an account on one name and sharing on-line access to it between three persons.
