Getting instant access to your savings

Savings rates

There are lots of reasons why instant access to savings is important.

It could be that you'd like to be prepared for unforeseen events, you're worried about job security or you're saving for a wedding or a holiday.

We've set out three simple ways to help you keep instant access to your savings and get them working for you.

First, benefit from tax-free savings

Whatever you do, it's worth taking advantage of you annual cash ISA allowance. In the 2013/2014 tax year, you can subscribe from as little as £1 to as much as £5,760 in a cash ISA and earn interest, free of tax.

Next, save a little every month

If you find you have a bit of money left at the end of the month or want to build up a lump sum, why not set up a regular savings account. Because you choose the day the money leaves your current account, you can make sure the timing suits you and your outgoings. After a while you'll find you've put a solid amount of money together.

With our Monthly Savings account, you can save from £20 to £250 a month for a year and earn a fixed rate of interest which is higher for the months when you make no withdrawals.

Putting a lump sum away

Maybe you're looking for an account that rewards you for savings more, but doesn't penalise you if you need to make a withdrawal.

With our Everyday Saver account interest rates are tiered, so the more you save the more you earn.
