Hmmmm! 1.5% tax free is about the annual return we get on our combined premium bond holdings but there is always the chance of a lot more - or a lot less - and to get the most out of PBs you need to build up quite a bit in them to improve the theoretical odds a bit!

 

Have you considered something like a Santander 123 account that pays 3%, although I presume that is taxable at 20% so 2.4% net?

 

Other interest paying bank accounts are available - just Google - interest paying bank accounts - or ask others on here for their experiences!

Don't do it Pam or this thread will get pulled also :D

Only if it gets personal or nasty and that won't happen this time - will it?

 

And perhaps if a few more nasty ones were pulled the nastiness might subside too - well I always was an optimist at heart.

 

That's optimist Dave - not the bloke what tests your eyesight in case you were wondering!

Well of course the figure that matters is the return after inflation. If the Governments inflation figures can be believed, 1.5% means you are getting about 1% after inflation. Thats better than 4% interest with 5% inflation which we had a couple of years ago
