Progressive BS Rainy Day

jameseonline said:

Hey just wondering about the 7% Progressive account, I know MSE link to it, but it doesn't appear to be linked to from their savings pages, just wondering if it's still a thing from them, like officially 

I think you might have to ring them and ask (or just go for it). It's still linked to from their Facebook page but that's hardly definitive. Can't find it on Moneyfacts.

EDIT: Don't know if it's recently changed but https://www.theprogressive.com/ shows the 7% RS front and centre.

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. 

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. 
My Exclusive 1 matures on Friday but I wasn't prepared to risk waiting.

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. 

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. 

Honestly, I’m not normally this obsessive & I do really like MONBS & Principality, even if they are a tad old fashioned.  

Those hard working ladies are probably now tucking into a nice slice of Bara Brith and a cup of tea.

The hard working gentleman was not doing that when I went in branch at 4.40 today. I phoned them earlier to find my online application from last Wednesday had gone walkabout. Went in and 10 minuters later had a new shiny passbook with £500 deposited. Normally it would take longer but as one lady said if I have already applied online I would have already seen the T&Cs.

Am I to understand that they had lost and/or had no record of your account opening? I applied last Wednesday and haven't heard anything from them. I may just go into a branch tomorrow.

I've been waiting a week today for something in the post.

Re: MONBS RS 

If it helps, and you have digital access to the mons.com website (or app?), then you can send them a digital image of your signatory form via secure message. I asked and they said they would be happy to accept this.

So how do I do this, I still waiting for a form in the post. Is one available online that can be filled in. I'm a long standing customer with several accounts with them.

MonBS RS

I'm lucky, I've received two signature forms both with my name on for two different Exc RS I2 accounts when I only applied for one...

Jamesonline, not sure if I’ve understood your question correctly but the Progressive Rainey Day RS is still available here, under their online savings section. 

https://theprogressive.com/savings/online-savings

It is not listed under their Regular Savers section on their website which seems odd.

Looks like it's now been pulled. No longer listed.

Just realised it is on the online accounts but you have to swipe across (not obvious on mobile).

I tried applying, got to end, told me to call or submit an enquiry.

Oh well

Applied online 21st and nothing so rang just now 29th only to be told application can't be found sorry you need to re apply. I know I'm not the first to get this response.

Maybe there's a backlog of applications & can't be tracked?

Bah. Was actually looking at the Progressive last night (on desktop). Layout different on mobile. Apologies for the misinformation.
