My Christmas Issue 5 maturity letter was dated 21/11, received 27/11. Maturity date was 9/12, so my Exclusive letter is getting overdue (maybe we caused it with the palaver over the current two!). Opened 23/8/23.
23/8 is a Friday and an Easy Saver at 4.80% was on offer last time. If there is something similar this time I think I'll take that route as withdrawal is easier and it avoids the weekend problem. The cash is not needed urgently.
I also have an easy access account with the Monmouthshire. When my Monmouth regular savers mature, I do an internal transfer to my easy access account and then transfer the funds out to my nominated current account. I find it quicker doing it this way.- Easy Saver (issue 1) -: 3.50%
- Limited Access Saver -: 4.80%
- Maturity 1 Year Fixed Rate Bond (issue 22) -: 4.74%
- Maturity 18 Month Fixed Rate Bond (issue 1) -: 4.55%
- Maturity 2 Year Fixed Rate Bond (issue 23) -: 4.45%
Monmouthshire provide a prepaid 2nd class envelope.
However, you can also submit maturity instructions online using the security details and/or QR code included in the maturity letter.No need to send the passbook back in such cases.4 -

Received my Monmouthshire maturity letter for my 7% Regular saver yesterday. I wanted to give instructions online to close the account at maturity and transfer the funds to my nominated account. Unfortunately, there are only two options, 1: transfer the funds to another Monmouthshire account or 2: receive a cheque by post.
I will probably let it transfer into an easy saver at maturity then FP it to my nominated account. Hope there is no delay because need the funds before September.1 -
