Santander anniversary date?

Hi guys

I opened a Santander 123 account last month..

Email from them 30/1 to say application received and another to say account opened

First deposit into the actual account was 6/2

I know they class 'their' month from the anniversary of account opening........just want to double check that is 30/1?

also as there is no 30th of February I guess this would be 1st March for the coming month to deposit required £500 to meet their Ts&Cs

    You'd be surprised how many times questioners haven't understood the significance of not assuming there to be twelve thirty-firsts in a year :)

    You could just play safe and plonk the monthly date midway between the 1st and the 28th.

    PS I have a paying in receipt from NatWest franked 30th February - so don't be so sure :rotfl:
