Just a reminder that a tax-free allowance of £1,000 is now available for the interest that basic rate taxpayers earn on their savings.
Higher rate taxpayer earning between £43,000 and £150,000 are eligible for a £500 tax-free savings allowance.
People with income in excess of £150,000 a year will be taxed in full on their interest income.
The changes to the tax-free allowance mean that banks and building societies will pay interest gross from 6 April 2016.
