Gah, gotta sign up or I'm not going to get it done for another year.

I've currently got my money sitting around doing nothing, so I'm going to stick the maximum amount in each year.

I basicaly just want this unused cash put away and claim the tax back and have the funds appreciate above inflation.

For simplicity, I was tempted by UBS simply because I bank with them and the website is in english. Unfortunately their online financial planner thingy advised me my money would be better off in the helpfully titled "other investment".

Are there better alternatives, in English, to be looking at? And I mean simple and safe schemes for a financial dullard like me.

EDIT: Just saw comparis offer more options.
Rate comparison as of 1st Dec 2009

UBS offers 2.25%. PostFin offers 2.5%. Highest is BPS at 2.75%
