    brilliant work SS2:T

    i have a couple of RSs maturing next month, and have just been looking at what to do beyond that. the drip-feeding is great in that it can build a useful sum and i find it a useful way of saving, but the actually returns are not great due to the low balance for most of the year...so i think i will only use 1 for the year ahead: the HSBC Prem one, providing they dont drop the rate in the coming weeks. even that will yield less than £100.

    The rate is for the account opened after year 1! It has been the case as I remember.

    Sorry, as you were for those with these accounts then!

    Dunfermline BS - Regular Saver at 2.50%.

    On 16/06/2014 all Dunfermline accounts will be fully integrated into the Nationwide BS and all accounts will be allocated new numbers.

    The DBS Regular Saver will be called Monthly Saver 1 and the interest rate will be increased to 3%.

    It is already 3% AER. http://www.dunfermline.com/Download-library/Savings/PlatinumMonthlySaver_DU98/

    The account is on the list in post #3 - - though its forthcoming transfer to Nationwide is additional information.

    NB. No announcements about integration into Nationwide of the identical Derbyshire and Cheshire accounts.

    This account is NOT the Platinum Saver at 3%. It is really called 'Regular Saver Account' and key info at 09/2013 shows an interest rate of 2.50% including bonus.

    I can also confirm that no similar mail yet received concerning Cheshire + Derbyshire.

    A "Regular Saver Account" doesn't appear to be an account that is open to new applications at Dunfermline BS.

    That appears to be the case and there is also no mention of it in historical rates either. It was a limited issue and has obviously been pulled. This account had a min/max of £10/£500 and is not just for a 1 year term.

    All I can say is that I have this account and anyone else who may also have it will benefit from the proposed rate increase to 3%.

    Hi Everybody,

    I have checked through everything and I cannot find anything that has changed for the first page of this thread or any new regular savers.

    I will do another update next weekend.
