    Leeds have a new RS?


    Their final one yes, issue 22


    It was closed for new accounts at the end of December - it's only one year at 2.3% and matures in early December this year

    Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness: 

    People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

    Oh I thought you meant they'd released a new one.

    I've checked my account today 1st Feb and it still says Regular saver 2.55% - I was going to close it in branch today but I'm reluctant to when it still shows 2.55%

    I'm just going to go in branch tomorrow, get the balance updated and make a cheque withdrawal. Simpler I think.

    It looks like that is going to be the easier option, still waiting for mine to transfer across.

    Can't beat face to face sometimes.

    So if I take my passbook in tomorrow, it should update with interest? I haven't asked for the money to be transferred anywhere.

    Hope nobody is relying on their matured funds for anything, as that's not what was in the original maturity letter. Slightly disappointed with Leeds Building Society for the delay.

    Indeed - if that IS the case it's different information to the letter which is very naughty.

    Best make sure I have some money in my current account as I would've have been overdrawn from a internal standing order that's due to be taken tomorrow and I'd assumed that this Leeds maturity funds would have covered that.

    Thanks to castle for the heads-up.

    best bit of advice I ever got was " NEVER NEVER NEVER trust ANYONE when it comes to money" ! Wonder if interest for Sat/Sun will be added. Hey ho, already spent it all already
