Maturity date of bradford & bingley ebonds

How do you find out the date by viewing your accounts online, i opened a 6 month ebond in october, but never funded it untill yesterday. The only date that shows up on the statement is the 'opening balance'

Was strange really, i though i only had 30 days to fund it and untill i recently opened the new esaver6 account and wanted to transfer funds from my esaver3 realised i had the option of moving the money into the ebond, but it was certainly not an option prior to this because i tried to.

    Strange, I have something similar, but different experiences:

    1) Opened esaver6 with intention of funding money in. After 30 days thought B+B would close this, an email from B+B confirming closure if not funded etc. Now that account is still there!

    2) Opened fixed rate account at lower rate of 4%. Funded. But as to date, £0 balance even though esaver3 has the -£1000 reflected? Where did my funds go? :confused:

    Probably with your case and my case, they need at least a few days for the cash to "clear". :rotfl:You would have thought B+B --> B+B would be instant, apparently not.

    No in my case, funds are showing as 'processed' in the ebond account.
  • When I transferred my money from Saver Issue 3 to Issue 6 the transaction happened over night and was in the newer account in the morning. Cant see why it would take long?
