Maybe wait for details of the RM Save As You Earn plan to drop through your door and compare. Interest rates are so pathetically low at this time you could consider alternatives too; everything from keeping your savings in a wall safe, precious metals, even non-perishable foods. I've savings with two of the three credit unions and may join the SAYE plan if the RM share price continues to fall in the weeks ahead.
