    From the Virgin Money website:
    "Please be aware that we will withdraw the Regular Rewards scheme from 30 June 2018. The final qualifying period will be 1 April - 30 June 2018 and the final draw will take place shortly following this time."

    Has anyone actually won anything on this reward scheme? I see it mentioned everytime I open a new Virgin Regular Saver, but never actually see anyone winning anything.

    VM recently sent me a survey about the rewards. I answered the questions suggesting I was only attracted by these rather than by the interest rate. Unfortunately I suspect others were more ...... shall we say..... honest and they realised it was a waste.

    Half a dozen £7.50 vouchers for free food and drink at MU. I give them away to family who still believe MU are the best. Takes their mind off the dull play.

    They weren't part of the competition, rather than guaranteed with the Match Day accounts.

    I must have missed some then, because we're on regular eSaver issue 10 now. Isn't the current store version Issue 9? Add in a couple of Matchday regular savers and that's 21. Which are the other 2 please?

    I don't think you have. My total is 21 too and I would be surprised if I had missed any.

    10 online, 9 in store and 2 Match-day.

    A few of them has matured. so by now you do not have 21 running.

    Nobody has claimed to have 21 running. Westie983 claimed to be "on" their 23rd (ie have 'had' a total of 23 Virgin regular savers).

    We're waiting for Westie983 to say which the other two were.

    Morning everyone,

    Just a heads up that you can now log your maturity instructions for the Ford Money regular savers online. You need to log one for the amount and then where you want the interest to go.

    I haven't checked (yet) whether we're able to make an extra 250 payment in May.

    If we are (and how the maturity screen is written) it might be better to wait until this May payment has gone through as you can't enter any amount greater than your current balance.

    My RS is due to mature exactly 12 months from my first deposit so I can't see how?
