Principality BS launch Members Reward Bond - 7.00%

if they still haven't opened you esaver, why not leave £100 in your matured regular saver bond and withdraw the rest. When they eventually open your esaver, you can withdraw the £100 or transfer it to your new esaver.

That's what I was thinking about doing. My matured balance will be transferred to the Easy Saver (or Instant Saver) so I thought I could just leave £100 there and be sent a cheque for the rest. This is probably the safest option.

Maths not necessarily being the strongest point, but here's a suggestion.
Rather than opening several RS i.e. Britannia/Skipton/Principality where if you pay £250 p.m. from a current account paying 6.3% into a 7.55% for a year, where the benefit is some £20 from leaving it where it is, why not instead, if you qualify (2 years membership) and you are able to (i.e. have the cash upfront) put the equivalent in the Principality 7% bond which will give you £70 more over the year.
