Even though the above a/c is closed, if I stilll have £1 in it, can I pay in more?

Regarding the Coventry BS Four Access Saver: 

I think Rudyson means that the account is no longer available to new customers.  Customers that already have the account can continue making deposits into it.   

Y not available to new applicants, including existing customers.

Better than the last increase which was a measly 0.15% on a BoE increase if 0.5%

YBS changes are a bit muddled - they said they were changing to tiered rates from 22 Nov and gave the rates, now they've sent out rates from 5 Oct not tiered. I guess the 22 Nov rates will be amended again

They're as clear as mud aren't they?  I thought I'd put the wrong dates down on my spreadsheet (the November dates to which you refer).  Heaven knows what they mean.

I opened issue 12 with £1 in case the increases only applied to the latest account but it seems the previous one is always being updated as well.

The Coventry BS Four Access Saver account was withdrawn from sale sometime ago.  It is no longer possible to open this account.

However, the people that already have the Four access saver can continue using the account (including adding funds, to answer the original query).

Ah I wondered when they would move but they will probably be down the pack again this time next week.  Looking at what Zopa do now because they only had an increase last week (?) but they are way down the pack now on EA and even Notice. They are usually pretty good at staying competitive.
