I have 2 cash ISAs with YBS - the only thing I dislike is that they close the account and stop you putting any more in it quickly, however now I know this, I'll just wait until I have the amount I want to save each year. Great interest rate of 5.2% on one of them and the app is really simple to use. Read more Read less

    Fixed rate bond

    Because I have held a savings account with the Yorkshire my loyalty was rewarded with the offer of a fixed rate bond paying 6%
