If you live in Bristol, you can compare high-interest savings accounts from banks and building societies across the UK, as your postcode usually does not limit your choice. Check the interest rate, whether it is fixed or variable, access restrictions, minimum deposit and any introductory bonus before applying. Consider whether you need instant access or could use a fixed-term account, and check that the provider is FCA authorised and covered by the FSCS where eligible. Your savings interest may also be affected by your Personal Savings Allowance, so GOV.UK has up-to-date tax guidance.
