    Hey,

    I'm going to be starting a MAsters soon in Dublin and it is costing 13.5k, I plan to put away about €1200 p/m between now and september. I don't know if it's best to just put it in a normal BOI Savings Account or which is best out there at present. I'll be withdrawing all the funds in Late august. Hoping it is approx €9600. Any Ideas on where I should save this money.

    Thanks in Advance.

    To get the best rate put 1,000 EUR per month into a KBC Regular Saver account which pays 3.5%.

    Its worth pointing out that if you only have a savings account with KBC, the only way to extract the funds is to request a cheque or credit transfer. You can only transfer funds out (through their rather basic online banking) if you have a current account

    Yeah. To be clear, you can walk into a KBC bank branch and request an electronic transfer.
