  • Mansfield Kick Start RS (7th edition) bonus ending 

    Paperwork received confirming reduction on the 17/9 from 6.1% to 4.25 and then 4%.

    They've waived the 90 day penalty if you've made 2 free withdrawals already if you transfer to any of their other products within 14 days.

    I haven't looked at the other products yet and not explored if this means you can transfer a little of the your Kick Start funds as I haven't used any of two my penalty free withdrawals yet.

    Applied for Mon BS RS 25.8.24, received their letter today - Not bad, Mons BS, I thought, particularly given the bank holiday in England (and Wales?); unfortunately, Royal Mail decided to 'intervene', as said letter was open, with the bottoms of all 3 pages ripped off (and nowhere to be seen), with the covering letter also having a clear shoe/boot print on it (the envelope, other than being open, is undamaged)!

    Phoned Mon BS, but it seems they are now closed till Monday? Presumably, the new account will have to be closed, and I'll have to reapply...

    Any other privacy/security issues I should consider in light of 'events'?
    Clearly not completely closed! Static at 01.00 today but now I've logged in today my supplementary £400 to issue 2 is showing and the interest and conversion to an access account of the previous Exclusive dealt with!

    They can’t do that - it’s fixed for the first 12 months isn’t it?

    Unless perhaps you opened it on 17/09/2023 - I only got it in December but normally open as soon as things release

    Mon BS RS, As long as you don't go over your £500 a month limit, can you pay in multiple times during the month?
    I choose the rooms that I live in with care,
    The windows are small and the walls almost bare,
    There's only one bed and there's only one prayer;
    I listen all night for your step on the stair.

    MonBS, can't see in the account terms but it must be in there - does the 12 month term begin after the first deposit, or the day the account was opened?

    My Monmouthshire maturity letter says if I want to withdraw to my nominated account (which they should already have details of) I need to send a original/certified copy of bank statement - any way around this?
