My £500 sent yesterday morning is not yet showing in MONBS RS account. Account just shows ‘Pending’, but no balance. I had expected it to be credited today.schiff said:
Signature letter dated 21/8 (day of application) received today and sent back today. Added the account successfully to the home page and sent £100 by FP today, intending to add £400 once it shows. Optimistic that it will be done and dusted in August for adding to it next month.badger09 said:MONBS RS
I applied for this 22/8 & received signature letter today. I’ve added account to ‘My Accounts’ & sent initial £500 by FP this morning. I’ll post signature form tomorrow & set up SO from 1 Sept as soon as £500 appears.

Yes max is £500 a month. It is still on their website. Click on Savings, then Personal savins then general savings then scroll down and it's under exclusive saving accounts.s71hj said:
They didn't send me t and cs and I can't find on their site now. Am I correct this is 12 payments, max £500 a month?gt94sss2 said:
Yes, the other details are the sames71hj said:I now have my Monmouthshire exclusive regular saver account number on my signature request letter.

I sent a quid yesterday, not showing yet. It'll appear later this PM or tomorrow morning, going by recent deposits to other accounts.badger09 said:

I think it normally takes 2 days for deposit to show, but it is credited on the date deposit was sent.badger09 said:

Minimum they say to open the account is £50 though so would it show a £1badger09 said:I sent a quid yesterday, not showing yet. It'll appear later this PM or tomorrow morning, going by recent deposits to other accounts.1 -
I did the same yesterday but not showing. I'm assuming it will be returned anyway as it doesn't meet the minimum threshold of £50?flaneurs_lobster said:

I actually followed it up with a £499 FP today, rather illogically, keen to get a payment credited this month.granta said:

I'm on the cusp of doing the same myself! I did send them a secure message asking to confirm if they'd received my £1 but no reply yet.flaneurs_lobster said:

I’m bored this afternoon & keen to get MONBS up & running & 1 Sept SO set up before I go away for 3 weeks this weekend. ‘Pending’ has now disappeared so assume they’re busy crediting yesterday’s FPs. Got a mental picture of ladies in full Welsh National costume, entering figures in a huge ledger in beautiful copperplate script.badger09 said:

I sent £500 on Saturday (24th) by FP to my new Mon BS Exclusive RS Issue 2 (got the signature form letter with the account no in the post Saturday am).
Checked this morning, account still showing as "pending" with no credits. Checked this afternoon and £500 deposit now showing, with credit date of 24th August.5
