    I'm on my second regular saver. Opened the second as soon as the first matured. Proceeds from the first regular saver went into a cash ISA.
    I'm just finishing my second. Here's hoping I can open another one!

    Some forum members say you have to remit £1500 only once within 3 months, but the FD website says £1500 per month in first 3 months. Whatz your take on this Biggles?
    I pay £1,500 every month, as otherwise there is a charge of £10pm (unless you have another qualifying account, which I don't).
    Can everything including easyswitch be done entirely online or is there any point we have to/or advisable to ring up?
    And how long would the process take?
    I did it all online. It didn't take long, but I can't remember how long.
