Savings

[Scama_bug]

Does anyone have any saving account that is taken straight from the salary?

Is it worth having one? I had a look on the forum at the other topics but all I found was discussions about loans on comm save.

I've seen that there is penny post and comm save but not really sure how it works and if it's worth having an account with them.

Thank you

Yep both good for painless savings from your salary

I totally recommend commsave, I have both a loan and savings with them, they pay around 2,5% for my savings once a year, better than my bank.
They give 5k for 3 years for new members, without asking for a first payment from wages or other requirements.

They do a soft credit check but they don`t care about your credit history, just that you are a employee of RM.

Plenty of banks are offering much more money for simply switching your current account. It's incredibly easy to do. Many have linked regular savers, HSBC, first direct offer 2.75% ( just dropped it from 5%) so just missed that but it's fixed unlike comsave. As it's a regular saver it's only equivalent of around half the interest rate in reality but you'll get £125-£175 for switching depending on the bank. Look at money saving expert.com there's much more to gain than the schemes you are looking at.
