Our Expert Opinion on TSB Spend & Save Savings Pot

Jonny PeaseCo-Founder, DepositScout

The 1.45% rate here is below the easy access market average and 3.55% behind the category leader at 5.00%, so this is hard to recommend on rate alone. It also sits 1.65% below CPI inflation of 3.1%, meaning your money is losing real value. The account suits existing TSB current account holders who want a tidy in-app savings pot without switching banks, but if rate matters, I would look at Tandem Bank's Instant Access Saver at 3.40% instead.
