What is TSB's best savings account with the highest interest rate?
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.
Finally, if you're looking to maximise your returns and shield them from income tax, consider an ISA. Below, we've listed the different types of accounts TSB offers, plus the highest interest rate currently available.

How to open a TSB savings account
The process of opening a TSB savings account depends on the type of account. Fixed rate bonds, ISAs and instant access accounts can be opened online or in a branch. A Monthly Saver is available to existing TSB current account customers and can be opened online or in-branch if you book an appointment.
Depending on the account, you have the option to manage it online, in a branch, over the phone or in the TSB app.
How do I decide which account is for me?
Firstly, you need to decide what you’re looking for in a savings account. Are you looking for tax-free savings? Do you want to save a regular amount each month or just as and when you can? Or do you have a lump sum you’re happy to lock away for a year or more?
You need to work out what you need before comparing the different offers available for certain types of savings accounts. Once you’ve done that, it’s useful to look at:
- Interest rates
- Fees (If there are any.)
- Access to cash (If you need quick access, for instance.)
Is my money safe with TSB?
Should anything go wrong, all eligible deposits with TSB up to a total of £85,000 per person are guaranteed by the British government. This is what’s known as the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS), and is the same scheme that protects customers of most, if not all, the major banks and building societies in the UK.
What are the pros and cons of banking with TSB?
Pros
- Online banking. TSB’s adult savings accounts can be managed online, so you can take care of your savings wherever you are. You can also manage the instant access accounts via the TSB app.
- Flexibility. TSB offers a range of savings accounts which provide options for all types of savers.
Cons
- Better rates elsewhere? Rates aren’t market leading, so you might be able to get better elsewhere.
- IT problems. TSB has suffered from IT issues in recent times. In April 2018 thousands of customers were locked out of their accounts.

When you make major financial decisions, consider getting independent financial advice. Always consider your own circumstances when you compare products so you get what's right for you. Most of the data in Finder's comparison tables is provided by Defaqto. In other cases, Finder has sourced data directly from providers.
