Regular Saver Thread **New and Restarted**

If you open them all, as most of us do on here, you'll finish up with 14/15 of them and have more in them than in all the other RSs put together!

Thank you I opened issue 12 online, last week. I went into branch today and opened up another one. However, I have noticed on the account that the one in branch is issue 11 is this correct.
Apologies if this appears a stupid question. Thank you

Yes, 11 is the latest and so the current one.

They introduce new online and branch issues at different times, so yes, the current issues are 12 for online and 11 for branch, though a new branch one will come out before the next online one ……. probably.

For the uninitiated, posts 952-955 appear to be referring to Virgin's regular savers, although the V word is not used in any of them.

I see that you mention that most people on the forum open all the Leeds Regular Savers and can have 14/15 but when I go online it says "Please note that you cannot open a Regular Saver (Issue 17) if you already have a Regular Saver product with the Society, with the exception of Regular Saver (Issue 4)." I do not live near Leeds - my nearest branch is over an hour away - how is everyone doing this? I have Issue 9.

Oh woe! Just as you make an interesting & helpful point, along comes a pedantic blighter and tries to prove you wrong!

So here I go:

A quick list: HSBC, FirstDirect, M&S, Lloyds, ClubLloyds, BoS, Halifax, TSB, Santander, Nationwide, YBS, Leeds (2), Saffron, Principality (3), plus all the building societies with locality restrictions, etc, etc.

YBS is a two-year account and allows £500pm. FirstDirect, ClubLloyd & a couple of the Principality accounts allow more than VM's £250pm.

So, it *is* possible to max-out the VM regular savers but still not exceed the total funds possible in all the other (mainstream) regular savers. But it is surprisingly close.
