Interest rates are f all m8. Do a stocks & shares one & chuck in a few exchange traded funds. Alliance trust is worth a look.

if you are not prepared to move it every year don't put it in an isa. first year is usually high to get your custom.

Halifax 3.5% fixed for 2 years now.
Report duncan idaho April 28, 2010 6:23 PM BST
some ISAs are, say, 3% first 12 months, dropping to, say, 0.8% after....transfer it to one paying more than 0.8%

www.moneysavingexpert.com usually tells you what's best around.

Best piece of investment advice I ever read was "Never invest in what you dont understand". Think he had something more complex than ISA's in mind though.

Santander offer best deal 3.5% gteed for 12 months and also gtee 5% above bank rate -better than 2yr fixed term deals as can look again after 12 months see how rates are going.
