Interest Account
Hey peeps,
My Grandad has his money in an account to make interest but he cant touch it for 6 months apparently, if he really needed it.
My Dad suggested he put it in premium bonds but he doesnt want that as its pot luck. so does anyone know of any high interest places? its no use to him sat under the floorboards.
I am estimating he wants to make money on 7 grand but perhaps up to 150 grand.

Re: Interest Account
Have a good read through this:

(also has sections on loads of other stuff... reclaiming evil bank charges, credit cards, utilities, insurance, etc.)
Very very good

Re: Interest Account
