Savings Account

So I'm looking for a saving account that I cannot withdraw from until I reach a certain amount saved. Does anyone know of a bank or building society that can do this

If you open a Monzo bank account you can pay into a certain pot and withdraw only on a certain date? Could be an idea.

that could help. However we haven't set an amount to put in each month as we on a tight budget. So it will be as and when we can each month.

Not fussed about interest rates but have called my bank and it turns out they have an option to limit withdrawals to once per year with no fees up to £5000. So no matter what i do in can't in fact withdraw more than once a year. Stops the potential to dip into it

I have opened my savings with my bank and all is set. Now to save and start planning/getting ideas. Well the planning is done by most of my fiancée friends and family as they love this planning malarkey. At least i get a little say hopefully.
