First port of call for savings accounts

Exceptionally clear, straightforward website, which provides all the information needed. It’s simply a pity that you can’t have more than one savings account operating at the same time, which would allow for date overlaps. Very competitive savings rates always. Reviewed on: 26th January 2024

Totally positive. I chose a SmartSave 1 yr fixed rate Bond because it had the best interest rate. It has been very straightforward and will mature in June. Reviewed on: 26th January 2024

A great company offering competitive rates that has kept me informed without a hard sell approach of their other products. I have one product now maturing and have no hesitation in reinvesting with them. Reviewed on: 26th January 2024

Wanted a higher rate of saving than my bank was offering during the inflation period last year. Smart save had the best rates and was a simple process to get my account all set up. Reviewed on: 26th January 2024
