    Mansfield Regular e-Saver 30 day notice - what have people done with this account please? Now I can get better rates on the funds elsewhere and even with other accounts I have with Mansfield BS themselves, I'm considering closing it given the monthly funding requirement. Anyone closed theirs so far, or intentionally left theirs open for any particular reason please? Trying to make my mind up. Thanks
    If you want me to definitely see your reply, please tag me @forumuser7 Thank you.

    You can miss payments. The minimum £10 funding is only applicable if you make a payment i.e. if you pay, you must pay between £10 and £500 per month

    "A minimum of £10 per month must be deposited in order to open and operate the account."

    They sent a survey out for people to look over wording and display of the pages when they release it.

    You don't have to have a quid in them.  i have four of these sat empty for about 3 years now.  They used to pay 2% on £1k each, which was a good deal at the time.
