Whats a good available interest rate for a savings account?
The answers given by the other correspondents look good – those are the sort of figures that I would have suggested. You can get more if you want to tie the money up in a fixed rate account. Remember that you have a £5,100 p.a. cash ISA allowance so if you didn’t need instant access to this money, you could put it in a cash ISA and it would be tax free, year on year on year. Remember that on a savings account you will pay at least 20% tax unless you are a tax payer Disclaimer: The answers above are for guidance only and should not be acted upon without you receiving professional mortgage advice relevant to your circumstances.
