Where to put my money...?

My current plan is to put some savings in a Kaupthing Edge 12 month term deposit account @ 7.01%AER.
I have a HSBC current account and am planning on putting the full amount in to a HSBC e-ISA @ 6.25%AER.
I'm planning on saving regularly each month in to a savings account. I also have a few grand I want to put straight in to the same saving account as I would like easy access to some money. I was thinking of opening a Kaupthing Edge savings account for this. Can anybody confirm this is the best option? I understand transfers between HSBC current account and KE savings account will take a few days with BACS.
Much appreciated.

These are a good set of accounts.
I would suggest that you also open an Online Bonus Saver and Flexible Saver with the HSBC to improve on the 0.10% paid on your current account.
Transfers take about 2-3 days and must be made from your nominated linked account.0
