We've just opened a Cash ISA with the Principality Building Society and they've been very helpful :thumbs:

Can't get safer than Northern Rock and NS&I at the moment

Nationalised banks

The Co-Operative bank and HSBC are probably safest at the moment, apart from NR and NS&I.

why co-op?

The shareholders are the members - so it can't suffer from stock market crashes, and it also hasn't had to dip into the money markets this year as it self funds from deposits :)
