Just to update, my new FRS is now showing in online banking. Wasn't expecting any change over the weekend and logged in on the off chance. The £500 is all present and correct, so relieved that I don't have to dispute a cash withdrawal.

Just in case it may be useful for others, the Nationwide website now states that cards will be provided if you open in branch or from the website (so outside of internet banking as I did.) I haven't received the card yet as I only applied on Thursday, but it all seems to be in order (my FRS has a sort code and account number rather than the xxxx/xxxx.. format of the previous one opened within internet banking.)

Will post again if I do indeed receive a card (would like one but didn't fancy being read all the paperwork in branch.)

I have now received a card for this account.

Newcastle Big Home Saver, once one of the best regular savers, is finally becoming totally useless.

New rate from February 9th for all issues (1-3) will be 1.05% AER, including a 0.8% bonus.

I'll be closing my accounts with them on February 1st.

I closed mine (1 & 2) exactly 1 year ago today, having almost drained them when the rate dropped to 2%.

Remember when 2% was too low to bother with?:o

I just have a look on my spreadsheet. I am currently having 23 RS running under sole name. No join account. I am just aiming at those paying 2%+

RS account augmented with Instant access Easy saver for temporary accommodating is is the way to go where the interest rate hit the rock bottom.

IMPRESSIVE

Is it under sole name or include the RS under OH and the one created using join A/C as a condition?

Are you also investing in RS paying less than 2% ?

Please share your knowledge to assist people to improve performance ...

List of the RS you are currently having will be very useful ...

Yes, but I held out as long as I could before I moved the funds elsewhere. I still have my account as you never know. Well we do, but we can live in hope
