leeds building society 3 year bond 6.70%

Not at all. If they have received as many deposits as they need, why would they keep it open at the old rate? It could even be that they believe that longer term interest rates are going to be lower.
That's how it works. Take it when available otherwise it goes.

The two year Fixed rate Bond is still 6.70%

Anybody opened the 6.70% 2 year postal bond yet?

I've just opened it online with a £0 balance and sent in the application to activate it. I'm confused as to whether (once activated) funding can be BACSed in or whether it has to be paid in via chq/post. Anyone know answer?

Once account has been opened online with nil balance - money CAN be deposited by BACS once the account has been activated (despite info to the contrary from their customer helpdesk) because (a) I've had a letter confirming it can be and (b) I've just done it.
