Virgin Money Regular Saver Thread

schiff

Is your nominated external account paying more than the 0.50% the Virgin money would earn in the Easy Access account the RS proceeds are being transferred to? It won't be Skipton.

I've transferred the cash in my matured RS 13 to my nominated account but it is showing as uncleared. Any ideas how long it may be sitting here?

Are you saying your money is still sitting in Virgin?

A Club Lloyds or a BOS Vantage would pay more [for one day, until you can offload to Skipton or other savings account], if you have room in there.

No, it is not showing in my Virgin Money account balance but neither is it appearing in my cleared transactions.

More to the point, it hasn't appeared in my NatWest current account after over an hour.

If I have to wait until Monday, so be it. I will only have lost 5p interest in the VM Reward Issue 26.

Closed my Re-S13/EAS26 at 2:37am this morning. Balance transferred into my NatWest current account before 2:45am (time to log out of VM and into NW) and then onto my NW Savings builder within seconds.

Is the transaction showing as cleared or uncleared in your Virgin Money account?

I see what you are saying, in VM it states uncleared but the money has definitely gone!

About 0.001p by my reckoning. Better things to do with my time. Found a penny in a car-park yesterday so my weekend's in profit!
