Regular Savings Accounts: The Best Currently Available List!

Virgin Regular Saver

Have managed to open the account on the website for current accounts and paid in £1. How long before the account becomes visible online? I don't have the app. Or do I have to log in to their separate savings account portal?

I'm on hold to Virgin Money Savings, busy, obviously.

Thing is while applying the need help phone number given is actually the current account phone line.

I don't think Virgin have thought things through, tested things out beforehand *SIGH*

So yeah, rang the number given, got transferred to savings, spoke to a guy about my issues, he's raised it with tech team and I've been told I'll be called back today or tomorrow 😒😌🙄

Mine was immediate, both in online banking and the app.

Just opened the current account and Regular Saver with no issues but trying to set up standing order from Chase to the Regular Saver and the details didn't automatically match .... has anyone else had this issue?

Yes, with Santander. Double checked account and sort code and sent it anyway. Showed up correctly within a couple of minutes.

Opened and funded. Can't say no to a 10% regular saver.

Try a different browser. You should be able to go to the resume an application part of VMs website, log in, and then it'll find the fact you started an application already.

Not a top one but one to possibly keep an eye on:
Darlington BS to launch a 12 month regular saver at 5.1% tomorrow (£250/mth max). Account allows 2 withdrawals/yr excluding closure.

Account is now showing on their website. https://www.darlington.co.uk/savings-account/12-month-regular-saver

However it won't let me apply. It just hangs indefinitely on: 

Loading product information
Please wait, retrieving product information...

If I try refreshing the page I get:

Product no longer available
Unfortunately that Savings product is no longer available.

Has anyone managed to apply successfully today?
