Skipton BS Cash Lifetime ISA Bonus - Anyone had?

stevenhp1987

Both me and my wife have our bonus for the last tax year in our Skipton LISAs today!

I expect this tax years to appear sometime later next month / early June.

Just checked mine and much to my suprise I have had a HMRC bonus applied as of yesterday. So it does appear to be on its way, though I think everyone else may have to wait a little longer.

Just checked my account and I had my bonus applied yesterday too, although I didn't receive an email informing me of this.

I saw that Skipton BS said that everyone would receive their bonus by 5th May (I think), I was wondering if anyone had actually had it as of yet?

Mine has gone in now :j

I've received my house price inflating bonus from the government.

The rat race continues.

I'm actually wondering how many people have Life ISA's no-one I know has them.

EDIT

Seems there are only around 60000 Life ISA's opened, and half of them belong to HL

I just checked mine and it's gone in too!

So pleased I transferred in my 2016-17 contribution as well as the 2017-18 allowance. Great bonus!

Seems a curious assumption, what makes you think you're at the front of the queue?!

Yes the HL having 50% market share comment dates back to summer 2017.

That first link was reporting that Skipton were up to 90,000 accounts by 31st March so that would be around 30,000 opened in the last month of the tax year.
