    Really useful, thanks. I have an Ulster Bank Savings account but no current account, but they have not told me I need one

    Say you have 2 DD one for gym & car tax does this count for the Santander hack? Or would I need to cancel them first?

  • @Nidge320
    @Nidge320 Před 2 měsíci +2

    You should point out that many accounts do not accept joint names on opening the account, (husband and wife) which has inheritance tax implications etc, for example - Oxbury, Atom bank.

    What about the Post Office on line easy access saver. Ok its 4.9% but no limit. No notice. Joint account available.

    Do you think the Santander hack would work while applying for the 2% cashback credit card they're doing?

    @pwincezq Před 2 měsíci

    How do you maximise the Santander edge saver? Do you put 4000 in straight away (if interest paid yearly or put around 90% in to take into account some compounding?

    • @tedlangton8667
      @tedlangton8667 Před 2 měsíci +1

      I would think put in £4000 straight away and pull out the interest each month into a different high rate account

    Can you have a Santander123 and edge account ?

    For Santander Savings Account, do they pay the interest monthly?

      @@gthbtn Ooh great, thanks. Once I get my £185 switch offer, I will upgrade to Santander Edge and test it out too. 7% is a very good deal.

  • @Iisardias
    @Iisardias Před měsícem

    The Santander edge says it requires to have 2 direct debits and pay at least £500 each month. So is the hack still working?

    Hi folks - great channel. I’m about to sell my house and move area. I will hopefully end up with about 250k cash but because I’m not in a chain I’m planning to hold onto the money for 6-12months or so before buying my next house. I’ll be living rent free in the meantime in temporary accommodation. I’m just curious where the easiest (no faff) and safest place to invest the money is? Obviously with highest interest rates and return? I might need to access my money fairly quickly after 6months or so. Thanks for any info folks.

    Nationwide regular saver 8%

    • @gthbtn
      @gthbtn Před 2 měsíci +4

      The Nationwide rate has dropped right down for anyone applying now... First Direct are the best with 7% and you can save up to £300 a month instead of £200 with Nationwide.

    • @OH2023-cj9if
      @OH2023-cj9if Před 2 měsíci +1

      Be aware, to compare rates, you divide the regular saver % by half and multiply that by what your total paid in for a year was.
      I think the 7% with 300 paid in was £126 in interest over a year for me with first direct. I drip fed monthly paid interest from another saver in to it.

      Yeah, I think it’s a little faster than I’d like this week, but I like to leave these updates as late in the day as possible so they’re as up to date as possible when it’s published. So that’s start filming at 5pm, edit and upload by 5.45!

      So basically the same with pretty much any online bank then?
