Close Treasury 12mth 7% ftd

light

I opened a fixed rate account about 10 days ago. No problems.

i did research with all the various credit agencies and read the other blogs but i think it safe share price has stablised etc.

On a lighter note is barclays now classified as a foreign bank !!

All the detail is on their website:

FSCS membership here: http://www.closetreasury.co.uk/quest-09.htm

Details of the FTB here: http://www.closetreasury.co.uk/PremiumGold.htm

Fitch rate them as "A" long term and "F1" short term here: http://www.fitchratings.com/corporate/ratings/issuer_content.cfm?issr_id=80359584

A = economic situation can affect finance
F1 = best quality grade, indicating strong capacity of obligor to meet its financial commitment

I am thinking of hand delivering my application this weekend (missed the post today). Anyone think this may be possible at the London address (surely there should be letter box or something)?

Doesn't the special delivery service only guarantee next working day if it is posted on a working day ?

Yep. And if I remember rightly last time I sent something Special on a Friday they mentioned it not being guaranteed delivery for Monday anymore.
