    I've just trekked into store to close this down. After a kerfuffle about something it was done, I'm now back in the house and noticed that the interest hasn't been added on! Sheesh.

    I went in today as well. Virgin Money said it did not mature until the end of today (2/9/2019), but was instant access so I could still close the account. Pity they could not say that in the maturity letter

    "I wonder if anyone else has managed to apply via post ? IF yu where did you get the application Form ? "

    Appl form IS on their site, BUT "you need to come in to the Branch"

    I phoned them this morning and was also told it could not be opened by post and that I would have to come into branch.

    You cannot apply the current account by post.

    It is actually contradictory to what it says on their website:
    https://firsttrustbank.co.uk/our-products/savings-and-deposits/regular-saver

    "You can open an account online it through any of our branches" but you must register to use these channel (on the footnote). I tried to find out how to do that, but I could not find it.

    I think it does not make any sense at all to apply online but you will still need to go to Branch. In this instance it is probably better to just go to branch directly.

    Regarding VM regular saver i12, I checked it about an hour ago.
    It has already landed on my Bank AC

    So check your Bank account now.

    Don't waste your breath, adidas. Northern Irish banks still operate like it's in the early nineties.


    Just give up applying for its current account online. Speaking from experience here.



    You have been warned. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
