I do not need to monthly balance update on my saving as I could easily see it online.

By it is good to know about prepaid envelope. How did you get a prepaid envelope ??

Would you mind telling

They send one everytime you send them the passbook. They also include a withdrawal/closure slip and possibly a deposit slip.

There's also a freepost address on one of the old Carpetbagging threads.

Has anyone received their maturity letter for the Virgin Regular Saver that matures 20/10/2017?

I know it states that they will write with your options, but other companies send out their letters about 3 weeks to a month in advance and the maturity date is a fortnight from today. I'm only asking as my post seems to be delayed being delivered recently as can be 3 weeks from date of post.

I think the 2% Nationwide account in post #4 has been withdrawn. At the very least, the link is broken and I can't find any reference to it on their site.

It has been, it comes up under the find current and old interest rate and says that the account no longer accepts new applications. It was still £0-£500 a month, so whether they'll launch another limited to £250 in the future we will see.

Here's a link to the section I found the information on: http://www.nationwide.co.uk/support/support-articles/rates-fees-charges/view-savings-rates

No, no letters here yet either!

Buckinghamshire Building Society have a new members' and local residents' preferential Regular Saver, paying 2% pa (variable), can pay in up to £500 per month and unlimited in time (up to maximum £85,000 in the account). Two withdrawals per calendar year allowed, third withdrawal only by closing the account. No penalty for missed monthly deposits. Account can be held along with an existing Simple Regular Saver. Limited to existing members (anyone with a savings account with the Society, no time qualification, could be an existing Simple Regular Saver) and local residents. I'm going to open one, using my existing Simple RS Issue 2 (paying 1.75%) as qualifier and will then keep that open but only paying in the monthly minimum of £10.
