If you are talking about the 3.25% including bonus account. Then yes you will get the bonus. The only condition is that it needs to be new money to egg ie come from an external source not transferred internally.
As for having to apply by telephone if you were a customer previously why not try and apply online and see what happens if it fails then call.
I do remember reading somewhere that even if you close your accounts with egg your online access remains so perhaps try to log in if you still remember your details and then apply.

i was thinking about opening this but is the intrest only paid yearly and not monthly?

Looking at the FAQ on the Web site there is a monthly interest option. I presume the amount you get per year is almost the same both ways as is usual.

Your first interest payment would be 12 months after the account is opened (see below). Then you could opt for the monthly interest ( you would of course probably be withdrawing your money after the initial 12 month bonus period is over !)


When is my interest paid?

You can choose to have your interest paid either:

Annually on the anniversary of the date the account was opened; or

Monthly on the day corresponding numerically to the date the account was opened.

With the Egg Savings Account (Internet) introductory rate offer, interest earned during the first twelve months from the date the account is opened will be paid at the end of the twelve month period.
