Halifax 10% regular saver error

Basically I have been on holiday and forgot to fund the account that feeds my 10% halifax regular saver. The standing order bounced on 11th September. My question is, if I amend it to pay on 16th, will my 10% rate be affected as it is still being paid in the calendar month? If so, does anyone have the details of how much my silly mistake will affect the rate?

thanks,

  • You can fund the account at any time up to 30th September (but the sooner the better for interest earning purposes).

    The 10% rate will be unaffected.

    If you fail to fund within the calendar month, the account ceases to be a Regular Saver and you get their Web Saver rate of 4.21%..

    As you plan, ensure you fund within September and you'll be ok.

    That happened to me ,I was faced with being overdrawn ,charge £30 plus £28,after speaking with them they withdrew I think it was the £28 so better than losing £58 worth a try.
