OUT OF SIGHT OUT OF MIND

As a student, saving money can be very challenging, as well as being all too tempting to spend if its sat in your usual current account. The thought of moving back home after i graduate makes me want to cry! so i wanted to place my saving into something that will benefit me after my studies! Santander were really helpful, and i now have a current account with them with all my savings that places £200 a month into my Help To Buy ISA with them - i cut my card up on the current account so i know all that money will be invested into my future, and at the time, it had the highest interest. I will be changing come April to maximise my interest on my savings! These life ISA's are tempting me now.... Reviewed on: 31st March 2017

as a student endsleigh offer affordable insurance which appeals to many a poor 20 something... however, they can be incredibly difficult to actually get hold of when the time comes that you do need to claim! Furthermore, their motives are somewhat questionable, and the fine print is rather bizarre... my boyfriend made a claim with them on his car insurance, and every time he rang them he was put through to other companies who wanted to charge him more money?? In the end, he was left with a second hand car window from a random company, 6 weeks after the claim! But, it did get done... eventually. Reviewed on: 9th October 2016
