Best Current accounts

A current account is a type of bank account used for day-to-day spending. You're most likely to use a current account for everything from receiving your salary and paying direct debits to spending and withdrawing money.

Yes, you can have multiple current accounts but it's important to be confident you can manage them all individually. People choose to have multiple current accounts for different purposes, such as having one for personal finances and another joint account with a partner or members of the household to manage shared bills and expenses.

Some current accounts pay interest, while others don't. Current account interest rates are often quite low, but some offer competitive rates, so it's definitely worth comparing your options. Some providers offer a savings account linked to your current account where you can earn a higher rate of interest.
