Regarding Beehive, is it possible to open/operate an account on desktop or is the app necessary?

There is an online banking website.

But you still need smartphone (or something else you need to use to take selfies)

Beehive have a holding page up at the moment, for a new online RS, with an offer to email when they launch it, so that is possibly more of interest, since I'm too far from a Nottingham branch.

Though Beehive always have this exact same holding page up for the Regular Saver on it's website, it looks no different today than it usually does on any other day.  But yes, hopefully the fact Nottingham BS have just launched one is an indication Beehive will launch one for UK Savings Week as it did last year.

I hope so.  I'm walking distance from the branch, but prefer the online/app version.  I'll wait for a couple of days and if Beehive doesn't launch I'll make a branch appointment.  Don't wan't to miss this offering.  I assume that having both, Notts and Beehive versions, is not an option

Good question, I'm not seeing any prohibitions in the T&Cs/Summary Pages for the NottsBS product, just says

• This product is limited to one per customer. 

Well worth an enquiry if you do make it to a branch.

Matures end Sept  2026 apparently, and unlimited withdrawals... that's one worth having if so!

The only snag is that it's branch opening only and Melton BS's branches aren't exactly widespread.

If it were postal opening I'd go for it, but I'd have to travel over 70 miles each way to get to my nearest branch. If I could get there for free I'd do it but the cost of the trip would be more than the extra interest I'd stand to gain on the regular saver.

EDIT:
Moneyfacts was showing incorrect info. Account can also be opened by post.

Lets wait and see what the terms say, their existing savers seem to allow postal applications with the caveat that they'll want original documents sent if electronic validation fails.

Melton isn't undoable for me, I go to the Costco in Leicester occasionally and that'd be a little detour on the way there. The bigger problem is their branches shut at 3, which would mean I'd have to do a long lunch followed by a work-from-coffee shop afternoon to make it work.

I don't think anyone has said 100% it would be available when you get up this morning. Enjoy your day it will appear when it's ready.
