    Nope, that's exactly the same as issue 5 which could be opened online but had the same clause regarding operation.

    You are right. I stand corrected. Ted

    For those who opened a Leeds RS Issue 6 yesterday and funded it (who already have issue 5), what interest rate is shown in online banking when looking at the account? Tia

    Leeds regular saver issue 6
    Account Balance: £ 250.00
    Available to Withdraw: £ 200.00
    Current Rate (gross pa): 2.30%

    But looking at my Leeds regular saver issue 4 it says only 0.50% - why????

    Available to Withdraw: £ 1950.00
    Current Rate (gross pa): 0.50%

    Do you have Issue 5 too?

    With regards to Issue 4's interest rate, it's 0.5% with a 1.8% bonus. As long as you adhere to the terms for the bonus interest rate, then you'll get 2.3%.

    Yes, I have issue 4, 5 and at least for a week or 2 I have issue 6.

    (and the dormant issue 3 which is closing in October)

    Mine says 0.5% but that would be because I c*cked it up and deposited 2 x £250 by mistake.

    My non-funded Leeds RS 6 is showing as closed this morning - I already have the RS 5.
    Do Money Saving sites make you buy more bargains - and spend more money?
