    hISAVE 6.15 Gross AER Savings Accout

    Thinking to put some money here. Hopefully it is not some pyramid or some "investment-guru-wanna-be-fund". Although the first 35 K are guaranteed by FSA. Do you keep your money in chunks of 35 K to stay under the 35 K FSA protection ?

    I opened I Hisave some time ago, a real shambles, they changed the account number without telling me and it takes ages to transfer money in. In the end after talking to their useless India based call staff I gave up


    Birmingham midshires also have a 6.5%

    The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

    But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

          Why on earth do you need to keep nearly three quarters of a million pounds in cash?

              Just had a look at their web-shiite, so 90's style.
              This is a Bank of India subsidiary folks. Read the small print.

                If you don't need access to your money for a year, try the Nationwide bond fixed for 1 year at 6.6%. Nationwide have one of the best loan/savings ratios out there, and are hence one of the safest.
