Martin Lewis shares the ‘top’ easy access savings account – ‘A big best buy!’ | Personal Finance | Finance

Hugh Chater, chief commercial officer at Virgin Money, said: “Following the Bank of England base rate increase, we want to reward our customers for saving with us and give UK consumers more reasons to bank with Virgin Money.

“We recognise the importance of supporting our customers in these challenging financial times, and by boosting our linked savings rates we can give customers better value for their savings.”

For anyone with a large sum of cash sitting in their current account earning little or no interest, Virgin Money’s offer may be tempting.

Those switching to its Money M Plus Account will also benefit from a £100 Virgin Experience Day gift card, as well as interest of 2.02 percent on current account balances up to £1,000.
