    Maximum calendar monthly deposit limit £250
    Maximum deposit limit £3,500 a year.

    Don't understand. How can I get 3.5k in at a max of 250 a month?

    I think it's because you can make a deposit for each month this year, plus one in Jan 2018 and one in Feb 2018.

    Saffron Building Society no longer accepting new applications in branch or via post for their regular saver @ 3.5%

    Having established via a phone call to the branch that the Saffron regular saver was still in fact available to new investors, I called in to the Ware, Herts branch today and opened an account.

    I have no prior connection to the Saffron, I couldn't book an appointment as they have been and are mad busy with new applicants (Martin Lewis's name was mentioned!), but I was able to complete an application form at the counter, produce my ID to be photocopied and hand in my cheque over the counter (they wouldn't accept cash).

    They expect to complete the formalities by weekend and my account will be fully opened once my cheque has cleared.

    Couldn't have been easier and Ware is quite a pretty little place and the weather was cold but bright and sunny!

    Today I opened issue 2 of the Virgin Money Branch Regular Saver, thanks for the heads up, while I was there was told there was now a issue 3 of the E Regular Saver so this was opened at the same time, in the same interview using their IPADs.

    Now I have three issues of the online versions and both branch based, which will take the funds I used to put in Leeds BS, and maturing Santander Regular Saver next month (Unless they issue a replacement offer higher then 2.25%) Need to work out if its still work using Bucks now the rate has dropped to 1.75%

    Maturing regular saver each month now with two Virgin ones maturing February 2018 :-)

    I think I may have a regular saver addiction.

    I now have 15, which is just as well due to the current account balances being reduced, now it just a drip feed game, and from maturing funds.

    EDIT** Does anyone have the Key Product Information for the E Regular Saver Issue 1, its the only one that failed to save on my computer.
