    Yes it did. Which explains why they didn't use the existing Easy Saver (which must have been the product of the matured monthly saver I had a couple of years ago).

    Also explains why they say they will continue to accept your standing order until you cancel it.

    Hi Folks,

    Thanks for the information above about 13th payments on the Club Lloyds 4% Monthly Saver account. I have updated the entry on the first page of this thread with the information.

    I cannot find anything that has changed for this weekend's update.

    I hope you all have a wonderful Easter weekend.

    I will do another update next weekend.

    Just received a letter from them telling me that the interest rate will fall on 1st May 2015. The new rate will be 2% including the bonus of 1%. This is a reduction of 0.54%. I'm not happy.

    TBH, that latest Newcastle drop is probably partly a result of MSEers piling in like crazy. It's not the first good offer that's been killed by us as a community.

    Hi can someone help me. I've just opened Lloyds club account and the regular saver. They say I have to fund the RS by standing order but I can't see how to do it.
    Is the standing order set up through Lloyds (if so where should I go to set up) or do I do a regular payment from another account?

    Thanks

    The drop also applies to Issue 1 of the Newcastle Big Home Saver.

    This account has seen its rate dropped from 3% to 2% in no time at all.

    I never knew why the account wasn't listed on MSE before or in any of the emails until the recent one which unfortunately has seemingly caused the Society to be swamped with cash and can now drop the rates again.

    A shame as I wonder how many of the people who have just opened the account on the back of the email with it paying 2.54% would have bothered if they knew by the time they got the paperwork it would be dropping to 2%.

    It still seems no one wants to be top of the Best Buy tables - damn Money for Lending scheme :mad:

    In that case I'm pulling out. I'm glad they informed us before the new tax year though as it's made my mind up about not putting anything in next month, which keeps options open elsewhere. Time to cancel the standing order and look about at how to close.

    In Internet banking, from the first screen, click on your current account, then click on "Direct debits and standing orders". Check that there isn't already a standing order to your regular saver set up. To set up a standing order from your current account to the RS click on "Set up standing order" - it's a green button towards the right hand side of the screen.
