What's the criteria for qualifying for the loyalty reg saver ?

We'll have to see when the product is released, but usually it is 1 year of continuous membership.

From email received yesterday Coming soon We're rewarding loyalty again - keep a look out on our website during next week for the launch of our Loyalty Regular Saver*, which is our fourth and final loyalty product of the year.

*To be able to open this account, you'll need to have held or been linked to a savings or mortgage account with Coventry Building Society, ITL or Godiva continuously since 01 January 2022 or earlier.

The terms were stated in the member newsletter e-mail. Sorry don't know how to upload the screenshot.

Held or been linked to a savings or mortgage account with Coventry Building Society, ITL or Godiva, continuously since the 1st of January 2022 or earlier.

I've just spoken to Coventry BS.
Their new loyalty rate regular saver will pay 7% variable
£250 max monthly deposit
Withdrawals/early closure subject to 30 day interest penalty

Sounds good ..... did you happen to ask if you could run this one and still run the 5.5% RS as well?

You can have both. Also some further details to add in addition to my original post:
The account will be launched on Tuesday 28/11/23.
The account runs on an account month basis so if you opened it on 28/11/23 and deposited the maximum amount, you couldn't deposit further funds until 28/12/23 so no 13th payment is possible on this occasion. I have now added these details to my original post.

Speaking as someone who likes to worry, that’s a worry. Open the account 28/11 and then set up a standing order for 28/12? Right at the end of December with weekends and Bank Holidays on the way! Not ideal timing. 

Option to wait until 1/12 to open the account but then could it be withdrawn? The recent Monmouthshire 7% went pretty quick as I recall.

28/12/23 is a Thursday and not a bank holiday to my knowledge so if I'm not mistaken SOs should still go out on 28/12/23. The other option is to forgo the SO and just make your deposits manually.

Its based on an account month, so you'll have until 28th January to make December's payment. Plus the Coventry takes ages to open an account, so the earliest you'll have the account details will probably be 7-10 days after the launch anyway

I wonder if its only eligible customers that received the email.

I didn't receive one. I'm not sure if i actually had any accounts with Coventry continuously since Jan 22.

Think that is more likely related to notification settings with Coventry. I've definitely had continuous Coventry accounts since 2020 but didn't receive the email. However I tend to opt out of marketing notifications, perhaps they would be useful after all.

7-10 days?? I've been with Coventry for years and always opened any account in a matter of minutes

That Coventry Loyalty RS seems pretty good. Sadly I only opened my account with them around spring time. Maybe next time.
