    Does anyone know if these regular savers allow a 13th payment.
    I have these and to my knowledge,
    First Direct,           No
    Coventry,              No
    TSB,                     No
    YBS,                    ?        
    Skipton,               ?
    Nationwide,         ?


    YBS-No
    Skipton-No
    Nationwide-Yes

    EDIT: Coventry FHS allows a 37th deposit over the 36 month term but RS Issue 5 and 7% Loyalty Regular Saver do not.

    Skipton and YBS state maximum balances so would presumably allow a 13th subject to having the headroom within that.

    Skipton however allow the carry forward of unused monthly allowances, so one would presumably pay in as soon as the funds were available rather than waiting for the 13th month.

    I open every one of them and make payment there and then.
    Those that allow a payment on the first of the month I then fully fund them.
    Even if it is the next day. To maximise my return.
    FD and Coventry fix the date to the first payment date.
    The six I have going should return around £780 I think I worked out.
    Plus the funding account pay 5.2% on the residual funds.
    £1750 a month 21k a year going round and round 😜
    Only issue is I don’t have 21k spare.
    If I worked the dates out correctly one or two will mature just before I run out of funding sources.
