  • YBS Loyalty Regular Saver/eSaver to be launched at 5.75% (£250/mth max). Available to existing customers with 12 months membership. 1 withdrawal max/yr excluding closure

    I've opened the new Yorkshire Building Society Loyalty Regular eSaver account. Interestingly, their system gives me as long as 42 days to start funding it.

    But I'm uncertain about one thing in the T&Cs: "You can only hold one Loyalty Regular eSaver [...]".

    I already hold the Loyalty Regular eSaver 2023, paying 7.00% variable. Please, does anyone know if I am allowed to hold both?

    Hopefully this is OK, as the T&Cs for that earlier product stated similarly:  "You can only hold one Loyalty Regular eSaver 2023 [...]".  They seem to be differentiating between the two issues, much as some other building societies do using Issue numbers (e.g. Principality RS Issues 31, 32, 33).

     

    Normally the Yorkshire allows you to hold Regular Savers of different types simultaneously. I might skip this one, though, or maybe open it and fund with the minimum amount in case it is competitive later in the year 
    I consider myself to be a male feminist. Is that allowed?
  • Co-op Regular Saver has been launched at 7% as advertised:

    I've got confirmation my application has been accepted, but seems to be a manual process so I wonder how long it will be until I can see and fund it

    I've just spoken to one of their branches, they've said that you can hold both the 5.75% and the 7% versions simultaneously.

    Great news, you saved me a call. Thanks
    Set up, paid and SO in place.

    That's a rather poor loyalty regular saver from YBS compared to their offerings in the past few or indeed the 7% fixed which Skipton are offering.

    • Have the account for a 12 month term – the 12 months will start from the date we accept your first deposit
    This could be useful for some that want to delay the end date, as you have up to 30 days from account  opening to make your first deposit.
    This is good to know, ideally I want to push the end date into the next tax year.
  • Hi

    Just applied for the Coop regular saver and came across the dob mechanism again. Am I missing something? Is there a way to enter the dob manually in these online forms? It's like playing Daley Thompson's Decathlon all over again.

    Cheers
