What is Virgin Money'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 Virgin Money offers, plus the highest interest rate currently available.

How do I decide which account is for me?
First things first, you need to work out what you’re looking for in a savings account. How often will you want to take money out? Can you afford to stash away large amounts?
If you’re happy to lock away your funds for a year or more and you have a lump sum to invest, a fixed rate bond could be suitable. But if you need access to your money or you want to add to your savings over time, an easy access account might be better.
Once you’ve worked out your financial situation, it’s useful to look at:
- Interest rates
- Fees (if there are any)
- Access to cash (if you need quick access, for instance)
