  • Just opened a Virgin E-Saver 5 2.2% today Tues 30 May and paid in £250.
    Do I have to stick to paying on the 30 each month or can I pay again 1 June then every month on the 1st thereafter ?

    If your £250 is credited to the account in May, you can deposit again on 1st June.
    Do Money Saving sites make you buy more bargains - and spend more money?

    The 1st. It works on a calendar month.

    I can imagine lots of Virgin Money branches (or "stores") stocking up on free tea and biscuits for all the people coming in to open their new issue regular saver accounts - I know a lot of you who read this thread collect these accounts!

    I picked up my 10th Virgin account before I went to Disney last week, came back to an email from Ford, Im back to one A/c as others have mentioned.

    I will stick with Virgin, they seem to allow multiple accounts
