I opened a cash CTF with Yorkshire BS nearly a year ago after shopping around for a good rate of interest. I assumed there wouldn't be many branches in the South East and expected to apply on-line or over the phone but was pleasently suprised to find a two branches in a 5 mile radius.  Staff were helpful and friendly and explained about the 2 different accounts on offer and we chose the cash savings.  1 year on and after our first statement I am still happy with our choice and although the rate has dropped considerably the account still appears in the top 5 and unlike some of the others you don't need to live in a restricted area to open the account.
