Regular Savings Accounts: The Best Currently Available List!

schiff

Some useful info about their RS. I've just completed the 12 months, how time flies! They will be sending letters in advance of the maturity. As I'm a long way out of their area I can ask them in advance to open a new RS when this matures and they will take the first £200 out of the maturity balance. I can also provide them with a request to FP the rest of the matured funds.

Seems perfect to me!

Opened H and BofS RS each through their on sites. Noticed that Halifax is NO w/drawals and BofS IS ok to withdraw - strange

Also the Halifax one is available to everyone whereas the Bank of Scotland one is only available to people with a BoS current account.

Their regular saver interest rate has been increased from 2.5% to 2.75% with effect, I assume, from 1/12/17.

They are not continuing the offer of a regular saver and this one matures after 12 months which for me is April 2018. Hopefully that may change!

The Childrens' RS continues.

Am on about my sixth annual RS with them. Always tremendous service.

As you are already a long term member you can just write to them enclosing a completed savings application form for a new regular saver and ask that first £200 be moved from your maturing regular saver.

Also it may be worth opening their esaver online account - you can view your balances online for all your Saffron accounts including your regular saver. Saves calling them or going to a branch

Here is a form that you can print off for the maturity of Saffron regular saver and open a new one.

Thanks for this. I can see how to close the old one. Can you explain how to open a new one with this form?

It's not a problem!

The Member Only Regular Saver Bond is a separate product to the Regular Saver Bond and there's nothing in the T&C documents to exclude holders of other Principality regular saver accounts. I already have the Regular Saver Bond and my application for a Member Only Regular Saver Bond was accepted and opened today.

So what is the account called that members with less than 2 years can open?

Started an application, however the conditions are:
You do not already have a Regular eSaver
I could not proceed with my application, as I already have Issue 5.

Can I apply if I already have the 5% reg saver?

Thanks
