Thank you for investing with us. When your Regular E-Saver matures, we will transfer your savings to our Easy Access E-Saver Reward Issue 18 account, which pays a variable interest rate of 1.16% Gross‡/AER†. This account is available exclusively to maturing Regular E-Saver customers.0 -

ive read the withdrawal options for this account but they seem to be general terms and not specific to the account. Is it possible for them to do a BACS/FP transfer to my current account?sully1311 said:My Virgin Regular Saver is going to mature on the 1st March.

They have always transferred funds on maturity date for all of my matured accounts.0 -
Saffron Building Society - Small Saver
4% but can only add max. of £50 per month for 12 months. Meaning £13 interest.
Not designed as a children's account, but I guess it could be added to there as it could be good for kids.

Not for me at the moment due to "Only hold one Regular Saver or Small Saver with Saffron Building Society at a time"

Can't see an update on this (although it could be hidden in between comments on people's thoughts on the sites new layout), but Saffron RS is now down to 2.5% as of Thursday 6th but allows a pay in of £500

Hi there, sorry if this is a silly question but my head is melting! I’ve got about £6k in a Natwest Savings Builder account (which pays 1.5% apr on balances up to 10,000, for any month where balance increases by £50). At the moment I can afford to save more, possibly 500 or so month - is it worth me now opening a regular saver with say Coventry that pays 2.5%, and just paying 50 to Natwest to get the monthly bonus interest? Or would I get more (in the short term) if I stashed it all on top of the larger sum. Importantly, I am only really thinking short term right now cos I might need all this money in the next few months, not sure at the moment, but both Natwest and Coventry are fairly penalty fee (just lose a month’s interest). I guess it’s not big financial difference given sums involved but very little helps and I’d like to think I’m doing sensible thing (for once...)
