Why does the UK's personal savings allowance disappear faster than casual savings advice suggests?
I keep hearing that savings interest is basically tax-free up to an allowance in the UK. Please explain why that is only partly true, and why taxpayers who move up the income ladder can lose the comfort of that rule faster than they expect.
