I take it you are talking to me? I am still confused with the reply / who is speaking with who style with this 'not so new' format of this forum after what? 2 years?
Anyway, one of my regualr savings account just matured a couple of days back and I got just under £100 interest after a year, that's 6%. I think it's already the best out there at the moment...
Saving accounts are not cerdit products therefore, not subject to credit checks? I don't want to open hald a dozen and be seen as credits hungry...
I was rather hoping I could get some decent return from the stock shares I was given, fuck that it nearly gave me a hear attack when I checked it last night... and it's not even in the EU market... nothing to do with Brexit...

Sounds pretty good based on those numbers - 2% is pretty pants for interest. If you're putting money away each month rather than just looking to stash a big lump sum somewhere then take a look at regular savings accounts - http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/savings/best-regular-savings-accounts
Also there are the high interest paying bank accounts, up to 5%. The amount you get back in interest for any of these is pretty paltry but that's no reason not to more than double it if you can.
