Best savings accounts and Cash ISAs for June pay up to 7.5% interest | Personal Finance | Finance

Billions of pounds are languishing in accounts with no interest, yet top-paying savings accounts are currently offering between 4% and 7.5%. Savers are being urged to review their money and switch to more competitive deals.

Research from Spring, a savings app owned by Paragon Bank, estimates that Britons are missing out on £20billion in lost interest every year, with £526billion sitting idle in current and low-interest savings accounts. Derek Sprawling, managing director of savings at the savings app Spring, said: “The billions sat in non-interest-bearing accounts earning nothing could be generating billions of pounds of interest if transferred to savings accounts, helping to drive the economy and delivering improved financial resilience for consumers.”

He added: “There are 74 million current accounts in credit in the UK earning zero interest, and these do not simply comprise small balances, with 6.6 million containing £10,000 or more.

“Inflation now stands at 3.5%, so making sure your money is working as hard as it can is imperative to retain its value.”

Here is a list of the savings accounts offering the highest interest rates at the time of writing, according to Moneyfacts data.
