I presume I shall be unable to open a new RS with Coventry as I already have an issue 2 account running and previous,posts on here suggest I shouldn't even have been allowed it as I had the original issue on the go.

Cov BS have replaced the Regular Saver (Issue 2) with an Issue 3 paying a lower 1.55% (everything else looks the same), but I presume the timing is to coincide with a large number of Issue 1’s maturing and people looking to open a new one soon upon said maturity.

You're fine to open issue 3 and have it run alongside issue 2.

Not according to the Specific Terms.  Took a bit of rooting around to find them, though - a pop-up window after starting application process.

Specific Terms for Regular Saver (3)
1.3 You can only be named on one Regular Saver (including any previous or subsequent issues) at any one time.

Eeeek. Looks they are now enforcing their T&Cs with a manual check.
