    Hoping Nationwide still have issue 3 of the Flex Regular Saver open tomorrow so I can open one after my issue 2 matures (I'm sure they will, just really bad timing if they choose to close issue 3 in the next 12 hours!).
    I can`t see NW just waiting for yours to mature tomorrow and withdrawing it today!
    Regular Flex 2 must be maturing for someone every day this month.
    Mine being the last day of the month.
    That`s why I went for VM last month at 10.38% and up to £250 a month.
    Well issue 2 launched on 21 September 2023 I believe, so the first ones will be maturing tomorrow  :)
    Fingers crossed for you then.
    I was obviously late to apply being the 30th. :D
  • Issue 3 is now 6.50% isn't it?

    My 8% should mature over the weekend.

    After the fixed term ends, we’ll transfer your account to an instant access savings product.

    What`s  stopping you opening issue 3 today @ 6.5%?
    The T%C state you are only allowed one account of each issue!

    When I tried opening the 6.50% a while ago (already have the 8%) a message popped up saying couldn't open as already have the product.

    The Summary Box for the current Issue 3 does say
    You can only be named on one Flex Regular Saver product at any time (of any Issue).

    Must be different from issue 2 which says:

    Conditions for holding your account
    You need to be aged 16 or over.
    You must have a Nationwide current account. If this account is closed after you’ve opened a Flex Regular Saver Issue 2, we may transfer your
    account to an instant access savings product. The terms and conditions and the interest rate for that product will then apply. We’ll tell you
    personally before we transfer your account.
    Your account can be in sole or joint names and you can have a maximum of two joint account holders. Only one of the account holders must
    have a Nationwide current account. Otherwise, all account holders must meet these conditions to hold the account.
    You can only be named on one Flex Regular Saver Issue 2 account at any time.
    If it’s been more than 28 days since you opened your account and you still haven’t paid any money in, we’ll close it.
    You must be registered to use the Internet Bank and have a valid email address.

    Not true, they state "You can only be named on one Flex Regular Saver product at any time (of any Issue)"

    Is anyone prepared to admit that they've found this conditiion didn't turn out to be entirely enforced yet?
