Would this be the Chiltern Gold Builder ? They froze the account at the end of Oct 2014 and after some changes to interest rates, they allowed a resumption of deposits at start of Sep 2016 and changed T&C to permit unlimited withdrawals. Monthly payments can be between £25 and £250 but must be same each month with no top ups. Monthly payment can be changed only once per annum and then must stay same for rest of that calendar year. Current interest rate is 2.00% (eff 01 Dec 2017). I assume they made it a closed issue at Oct 2014, but they did not say in so many words. But as of Sep 2016, it can continue to be operated by those who held onto it when it was frozen. So no - no maturity date - just keep going.

Does anyone here still hold the Buckinghamshire RS?

I have been funding it each month since late 2016 and I notice on the website that it is now a closed account....

Do you know when it 'matures' or do I just keep going?

I know other accounts like Leeds, let me know when they are stopping payments in, but not heard from Bucks about their account. Simple Regular Saver Issue 3 is now visible on their accounts. Westie983

My Simple RS keeps going .. opened in 2013.

I thought you could not open a Lloyds Monthly
Saver and a Club Lloyds Monthly Saver, but have been able to do so.

I can almost smell that 2.5%

If there is to be a Virgin Money Regular eSaver issue 10 launched this afternoon and if it does have 2.5% interest .... all speculation so far ...
But if your if the finances are a bit tight then might it be worth closing Virgin Money Regular eSaver issue 4 - mine finishes 20/04 so there is only one more set of £250 to go into it.
My issue 4 only produced £32 in interest and there is only one month to go so might the £250 be better used to set up the issue 10 ...
