It was extremely easy to save with Smart Save. Unlike other providers when my account matured I was able to deal with transferring the money into a new account very straightforwardly on the Internet and did not have to speak to customer services over the telephone. The interest rates are also competitive Reviewed on: 2nd February 2024
