Newcastle Building Society is the biggest building society in the North East. People from across the UK can open a range of savings account options with the mutual, from fixed rate bonds to ISAs, as well as other options.
Newcastle Building Society's top savings rate of 5% is available on one of its easy access accounts.
The best savings account depends on what you want from your savings. If you're after fast access to your money, then an easy-access account should suit you. However, if you're happy to lock your money away for a time to access a higher rate, then a fixed-rate bond is a good option.
