Gatehouse Regular Saver.

1pm cut off for same day funding. Has anyone ever had any luck with funding around 13:45 (now) or later instead for same day please?

Thank you

Leeds Home Deposit Saver

Do they accept instruction to pay the interest to an external bank account instead?

From the summary box:

Thanks - reminded me interest was due today! Regular Saver normal variant interest has also been credited today, future dated to 31.03.2024.

Though  I seem to recall whenever I've made withdrawals from Leeds BS accounts the funds have arrived the next working day so if you try and withdraw the interest today it probably won't arrive till Tuesday (tomorrow is Good Friday), with the funds withdrawn not earning interest during this time.

Now offering a Loyalty Regular Saver (Issue 2) paying 6.75% variable, £1-250 per month,
I assume this replaces the Issue 1 version which paid 7% that was withdrawn in December 2023,

I don't know when this was made available but I can't see it in 'the list'.  It is not the same as the ordinary Coventry BS Regular Saver which offers 5%.  Apologies if I have missed a previous notification post regarding this account.

It was first mentioned by @Kazza242 in this thread on 15/3/24.

Afraid not, I paid a whisker after 1pm before Chrimbo and it was deposited the next day.

Thanks for the heads up - I'll make the withdrawal next week

Where's the attraction ?
There are better regular saver rates available and it's variable, there are fixed rates out there.

Yes there are many, but I believe it's posted to keep page 1 updated with the latest account as it's falls within the criteria.

5.25% still sits above EA so if you've exhausted all accounts above that, it's still an attractive proposition, especially considering EA rates are falling quicker than RS.
5.25% accounts are going to get even more attractive in the current climate, hence I've kept many older ones in the background ready to be used again.
