TSB is a really good bank IMO. I've had my account since i was about 7 and just upgraded it as i got older
Opened up a savings account with the Halifax as i wanna buy my flat one day without a morgage

If you are leaving the money in the account for some time then you are better off with a building society as the interest is much more. The TSB and HSBC are both banks i think
