Great service

Superb interest rate

Amazing interest rate on up to £300 a month for 12 months - just hope they offer some way of continuing it after the year is up! Reviewed on: 17th March 2023

No Debate, Great Interest Rates,

In a banking dessert for getting returns on your money it's refreshing to see one offering one of the best rates of 7% up to £3600 with their Regular Saver.
