I'm so well known there I can ask for anything

A quick million pound loan at 0% interest, repayable at your discretion....?:D

I'm trying to cultivate a relationship with Branson by opening every regular saver he offers me. Once he acknowledges that, I may try my luck

I really don’t think he cares less anymore if you never darken the door of the [STRIKE]branches[/STRIKE] stores ever again after virgin sold their stake in VM.

As long as he keeps getting his licence fee in the Bank of Necker Island

How many "issues" of the Virgin Regular Saver can one have?


For example, if I were to take out the current version that is available today, can I open an issue 17 if it comes out in June, or would I have to wait until the current one is finishes?


Thanks

Thanks

Yes. You could have one on each single issue
That is what some people on this thread are doing. One of the best RSA in the market.

Excellent! Thank you. I have 5 RSA with various other organisations, I may as well add Virgin to the portfolio :beer:

This bond was now been launched and I successfully opened an account in branch today. It is not listed on the Monmouthshire Building Society website and is available only to existing customers in "selected branches" (including Chepstow), not online or by post, The rate is 4.00%, maximum monthly deposit £150, term one year, no in-term withdrawals.

Hi Everybody,

I note the entry above but as there is nothing on their website and it is probably not going to be around long, I am not going to add it to the list on page 1 but thanks a lot for posting it.


I cannot see anything else that has changed this week.


I will do another update next weekend.

Re Saffron BS RS

Thank you to all who posted on ways to open this account
It worked a treat

[Deleted User]

This was discussed upthread.

My postal application was successful, despite not being within the catchment area of the Society.

Opening was slow. I posted application form on 30 April with cheque for £500, then received letter requesting hard copy identification documents which I posted on 8 May. Account was opened on 13 May, passbook received today 15 May. Cheque was debited form my current account today.

Advantages:-

Interest rate is 3% (but variable) paid annually on anniversary of opening
Monthly deposit is £500 maximum (maximum of £6000 annually)
Account is unlimited in time (but subject to overall limit of £24,000)

Disadvantages:-

Miss more than 2 monthly payments out of 12 and the account is downgraded to a low interest one.
Withdrawals are not more than 2 per year, each up to £500 (but can close account at any time)
No online access (but payments can be electronic one-offs or SO's)
