"Can't think of many more obvious examples, but worth noting"
first direct and HSBC is another example.
but as someone said, there is no chance of HSBC going tits up.
if you want to earn top dollar, Ulster Bank is doing a 1.25% instant access savings account. all the others seem to be only doing 0.25 -> 0.5

just an fyi, you're covered per 'parent' institution I believe, so for example depositing with RBS and Natwest would only provide one lot of 85k protection.
That's true for some, but not for RBS and NWB.

Put it in an HSBC account. I work there, no chance of that place going belly up.

In terms of safety, as long as it's covered by the FSCS, it's £85k per person, per institution.
National Savings is of course safe, unless the government defaults on its debts.
