Anyone having problems with Saffron? Tried to send them a secure message but it won’t send (have tried on 2 different days now.) Usually it would send on the website but this just throws up an error as soon as I log in.

I still can't log in on PC (I prefer not to use apps when possible, prefer large screen and keyboard), so whatever the glitch is, they haven't fixed it yet.

I just logged in fine on my laptop so hopefully will work for you now. (Saffron)

I may as well be daring, I shall close my Skipton RS manually on 31st May, open and fund a new 7% RS (if still available) the same day, send some of the balance to fund the minimum deposit on the SRBS Regular Saver and the remaining to the Member Bonus Saver. 

I plan to do this too, anyone got feelers from Skipton whether the 7% version will survive for another 6 days?
Don't we have a Skipton rep in the forums?

Thank you.  Apparently the issue is because they've changed their specification for the length of the memorable word.  I wasn't aware that there had been a change, my old one certainly worked last week so the change can only be fairly recent.  Anyway, changed my memorable word, and all's ok now.

Do you know what the specified length is? Is phoning them the only way to change it? Still no luck getting the app to send them a secure message (it all works fine until you hit send) and tried the leave message on their website but not sure that it went. The first time it told me to login after I typed out my message and tried to submit it, and when I did it gave me the usual error with a ticket number (though a different ticket number to before.) The second time it didn’t do this and seemed to go, but no confirmation received..

I doubt it. It is not released until June. Leaked info is that it will be £50 per month for 12 months at 7 or 8%

My issue was that, when I got as far as entering the three digits of my memorable word I kept getting a message saying the information was incorrect. I rang them and, after a process of elimination, I was asked me how many digits were in my memorable word. There is now a minimum of 10 digits. The CS rep sent me an email link to change my memorable word. I don’t know if you can do this without phoning because looking at the log in page to reset, the only options are forgotten “user ID” or “password”, it doesn’t mention memorable word there.

Thanks - I had 6, my next thought would gave been 8. 10 is going to take some thinking about.

Use a password manager to generate/remember as many characters as you like. No thinking required.

I had problems opening an account this morning, no matter what compliant password I selected it wouldn't move forward. After four attempts on two different browsers I phoned them. I was given great help by a lovely young man, well, I say help but he couldn't resolve the problem so I asked him to email me the application pack, which he did. He even offered to send me a SAE but I declined as it seems silly. Application completed, printed and given to my postie.

He did say that there's an eight minute time limit for applying, I didn't use much more than five each time.

Great service on the phone, it bodes well!

I’m still getting this error too. Anyone managed to apply online?
