Our Expert Opinion on Teachers Building Society Double Access Savings for Teachers

Jonny PeaseCo-Founder, DepositScout

This account is aimed squarely at teachers, so it rules itself out for most savers from the start. The 3.55% rate sits 1.45% below the easy access market leader at 5.00%, which puts it below the market average, though it does edge 0.45% above CPI inflation of 3.1%. The real catch is the withdrawal limit: make more than two withdrawals in a calendar year and the rate collapses to 1.25% for the rest of that year, so if you think you might dip in regularly, Kent Reliance's Easy Access Savings Account at 3.75% is worth a look instead.
