Why would a bond be withdrawn?

A beginners question, but I'd be interested to know why a fixed interest rate bond would be withdrawn. I'd been looking at a 1 year bond offered by firstsave dot co dot uk - and listed on this site - a week or so ago but it's now shown as 'currently unavailable' at firstsave dot co dot uk/accounts

Is this in anticipation of an interest rate change or do they just have a limit on the total value of bonds that they issue.

Thanks!

    Banks and Building Soceity's uusally have internal limits of how much they want to raise from a savings account. When this limit has been reached they tend to close them.
