Thanks for the link, I lost my early copy and always like "evidence" to remind me (and them?!) 4 or 5 years down the line.

Thanks for reviviing a year old thread and letting us know your interest was paid. See you next year.

Only if you have an actual Newcastle web-based account as well as this one. And it only allows you to see the balance, not transfers etc. (which is all you need really).

Ah yes, thanks. I remember there was a catch, just couldn't remember what it was.

There is nothing in the forum rules that he cannot revive a year old thread.

The sarcasm is uncalled for

which account is that then? The only one I can find is this which requires a minimum £250 balance: http://www.newcastle.co.uk:80/savings/newcastlenet

When I opened a Newcastle 5 year bond in July last year, there was an account called Newcastle BS Online Saver Account. You could open this one with just £1. This is still paying 2%.
Unfortunately, this account is no longer available to open.

did i break the law or something re posting in a 1 year old thread :mad:

yup you needed to have had opened a web saver and stick a £1 in it in order to view the 5 year 5% bond.
