Just saw the 3% tesco current account go hot, so thought this one was worth a mention too.
Great current account if you dont mind doing your banking online. 5% on balances up to £2,500 for first 12 months when you pay in £1,000 PCM. Currently rated top current account on which?
Combine this with their flexexclusive regular saver which offers 5% interest when you top up between £1 and £500 each month for 12 months and you are onto a winner!

if you pay for Flex plus you also get free worldwide travel insurance, uk breakdown cover, moile phone cover and extended cover on some purchases. Costs £10 a month but worth it for some people

Three of the same account under a single name/account? I didn't know you could sign up for multiple accounts, I thought you could only get this account once for 12 months?

Dumb question. Does the interest get paid monthly?

If you can afford to leave £2500 in it at all times the interest earned is slightly more than the cost of the monthly fee. After the first year that no longer applies.

There is no monthly fee on FlexDirect.

The difference with this and the Tesco one is that with the Tesco account, you can just stick in £3000 and you're done. With these you need to make sure there's money being paid in - not a huge issue and certainly better than the Coop one - when I was looking at switching it needed 4 active dd's!
