    The T%C state you are only allowed one account of each issue!

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

    You can only be named on one Flex Regular Saver Issue 2 account at any time.

    That wording doesn't confirm that you can have an issue 2 and an issue 3 though

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

    Yes, see above posts.  If you follow the application through to the bitter end, it eventually tells you that it can't be opened as you already have a Flex Regular Saver.

    Not quite what I meant. Not me, but someone I know ended up with 2 Flex Regular Saver Issue 2s - if you cast your mind back the application form was quite broken the first day it was available, erroring out at the final stage. I presume one of those applications was eventually processed. They expected the additional saver to be closed but have funded it each month and both mature tomorrow.

    I was curious if anyone else was willing to admit to having benefitted in the same way.

    I showed the T&C for issue 2. 
    Issue 3 had not even been thought of then so why would it confirm it.

    As it turns out issue 3' s T&C are worded differently and does confirm only one account of ANY issue.

    If NW are cynical enough to withdraw issue 3 the day before the start of the first maturities then vote with your feet.

    Yes, I'm fully aware of that.  I wasn't suggesting issue 2 terms should refer to a subsequent issue that "hadn't even been thought of".  My point was that those terms are irrelevant in this situation, considering issue 2 is NLA.  I don't understand how you thought the issue 2 terms you pointed to would invalidate my post about only having 1 Flex RS of any issue as per the current issue terms.

    If people are worried re the account being withdrawn, can’t we just close it early and open the new issue? Haven’t looked at it yet, but that’s what I was planning to do.

  • Yes, although when applying for a new account, you'll see a message saying you need to wait up to 24 hours for the record of your previous account to be updated before you can open the new one

    Tried, and it took me through to the very last step and then an error message (surprise?!) saying:

  • I can confirm you can only have 1 Flex Regular Saver at a time.

    I have tried a few times to get issue 3 while having issues 2, it's a no go.
