    Yep wife and I got the same letter today. Ours are scheduled to mature next month so if we reopen them quick (ahead of the April 6th change) we should be ok for another year.

    Don't use a long word when a diminutive one will suffice.

    Why not simply set two DD's to two Tesco accounts? Problem solved!

    Yeah might look at that next year. I've not yet needed to do the Tesco thing :)

    Has anybody had one of these mature yet? Mine has disappeared from my accounts screen when I login but the monies haven't appeared in my current account (full day funds not showing). I have sent M+S a question (awaiting reply) - but is this normal?

    Assuming it is like the First Direct one it will appear in a few days in a new instant access savings account.

    When did it mature? Mine appeared in my current account the following day.

    Yes it's normal. It'll appear in your current account at some point soon and when it does, then you can open a fresh Monthly Saver.

    On my spreadsheet I have got the 1st April. This ties up with maturing on the 31st March and available next day for withdrawal. That was only my interpretation based on other banks/b socs making you wait a day.

    My spreadsheet note reads 'Interest on maturity 1/4/16; converts to an instant access account'

    I opened a M&S monthly saver back in November and received the letter regarding the t&c changes. Does it mean that I have to set up 2 direct debits for April or does the 2 direct debits apply only for new accounts? Thanks

    I don't have the letter but several posters who have, say that for existing account holders, the requirement to have 2 DDs on their current account, will apply only if they open/renew their Monthly Saver on/after 6 April 2016.
